Birds and wind physics problem .. vectors!?
A flock of ducks are trying to migrate south for the winter, but remain out course by a wind blowing from the west to 5.5 m / s. A wise old duck finally realizes that the solution is to fly at an angle to the wind. If the ducks can flying at 9.0 m / s for air, what direction are directed to move directly to the south? degrees west, south of * _____ I know it has to do with vectors, I just cannot seem to represent what is happening, so I can not get the answer
North = J + = + i eastbound direction V1 =- 9.0jm / s V2 =- 5.5im / s V3 = V1 + V2 = (-5.5i-9.0j +) m / s φ = arctan (9.0/5.5) = 58.6 ° W, S This should help understand the rest.
Feeding birds in winter – the Triple Play
feeding wild birds is a winter pastime attractive and entertaining. It is also very beneficial to the health of birds. The cold weather months make it difficult for birds to find food. Backyard bird feeders provide much needed assistance to this regard. Three specific issues, if properly maintained, can optimize their wild bird feeding experience, ensuring that many different species of birds visit your backyard feeders all winter. First, of course, you need one or more bird feeders, second, you need a birdbath; and third, often overlooked, you should put a winter roost box .
Bird Feeders
Bird feeders come in all shapes and sizes, accommodating the different ways birds often eat. For example, reeds, and sparrows forage on the ground, so platform feeders easily meet your needs. Meanwhile, finches and chickadees feel birds attracted to feeders filled with seed tube.
If you put a few bird feeders of various styles and use a mix of seeds, fruits and nutmeats can greatly increase the number and variety of visiting birds. In fact, the addition to the variety of foods that provides for the birds add more than proportionately the variety of birds in their bird feeders.
Bird Baths
One of the characteristics of water as a source for birds, has a magnetic effect on the birds, all the time to pay attention to some details.
- Change the water every few days to keep it clean and healthy.
- Add a drip or lord to sink to maximize bird traffic – moving water is much more effective to attract wild birds still water.
- In the winter, you need to keep water from freezing. A submersible pool heater will keep the birds coming, even in snowy weather.
Roosting boxes
The observer of birds that can provide some protection against the cold winter nights is likely to be rewarded with a greater variety and frequency of birds in their feeders. roosting boxes of wild birds are built to accommodate several people. Birds of luck, now sheltered from the wind and rain, can snuggle together for warmth. Imagine a feeder clean, well assortment of birds only a few meters away from the roost box. That would be a very busy and entertaining place in the winter.
Place the box perched on a pole wood or metal, in a tree, or on the side of a building. Make sure you are back to the prevailing winds. If you can mount the box so that it faces alight south, get a great warmth of the sun in winter.
If you buy a wild bird roosts or make Your Own box, make sure it meets these requirements:
- The roost box, unlike a nest box should not have ventilation holes or drainage – the idea is to keep heat from escaping.
- Box manufactured roosts in a horizontal orientation may have a few hooks that extend from one side of the box to the other, while vertical roosting boxes will probably have several hangers shorter than a standard mount in a progressive manner. Either way, there must be enough room for several birds.
- The inlet should be located in the bottom of the roost box. Heat rises, so an entry hole placed too high will cause the box to lose heat roosts.
- The roost box has to be accessible for cleaning. The top or the front of the box should be hinged for easy opening.
One or either more bird feeders, a sink with a drip or lord, and a box near roosts are the ingredients of a successful winter feeding of wild birds. Go to its "triple play" together today, and enjoy the results. Happy birding! About the Author
