A boat travels down a river. Relative to the riverbank, the water moves at a constant speed of 22 m/s in a direction of 60° NW. A woman on the boat drops a flask into the river. After 1.2 seconds, the woman noticed the flask, moving with the water, had traveled 18 m in a direction of 20° SE. A REMINDER: A velocity is a magnitude and direction Relative to the riverbank, what is the velocity of the boat? Draw a bird’s eye view, from the boat’s perspective, displaying the other objects velocities (The water, the riverbank, and the flask)

A basketball player is standing on the floor 10.0 m from the basket as in Figure P3.47. The height of the basket is 3.05 m, and he shoots the ball at a 40.0 angle with the horizontal from a height of 2.00 m. (a) What is the acceleration of the basketball at the highest point in its trajectory? (b) At what speed must the player throw the basketball so that the ball goes through the hoop without striking the backboard?
The velocity of the wind relative to the water is crucial to sailboats. Suppose a sailboat is in an ocean current that has a velocity of 2.3 m/s in a direction 28° east of north relative to the Earth. It encounters a wind that has a velocity of 4.5 m/s in a direction of 45° south of west relative to the Earth. What is the magnitude of the velocity of the wind relative to the water, in meters per second? What is the angle of the velocity of the wind relative to the water degrees south of west?
A sailor in a small boat encounters shifting winds. She sails 8 km south, then 15 km 30o E of N, and then 12 km 25o N of W. Use the polygon method to determine the magnitude and direction of her resultant displacement.
A rocket was launched at a 35-degree angle above the horizontal at an initial velocity of +55 m/s. What is the Vy and Vx of this rocket?
The Airbus A350 from Manila bound for St. Petersburg cannot travel in a straight route due to weather disturbances and some restrictions in the air space. Instead, it travelled at a velocity of 740 kph due 25° NNE, then it turned towards East at a velocity of 870 kph. After that, at a velocity of 900 kph, it ventured 35° WNW, then it turned 50° South of West maintaining the same velocity of 900 kph. Finally, to reach its destination, it needs to turn towards west at a velocity of 350 kph. Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant of the airplane’s velocity during its flight.
Can you help me with this problem? A bald eagle flies 5.75 m/s north relative to the air. There is a wind that is blowing east to west at 3.25 m/s. What is the magnitude and direction angle relative to the ground of the bald eagle velocity? Assume the y axis is north/south and the x axis east and west
A velocity vector has x-component vx = 6.3 m/s and y-component vy = - 2.5 m/s. What is the total magnitude of the velocity? O 3.8 m/s 6.7 m/s 5.8 m/s 8.8 m/s
A crazy person jumped off a 100-meter sea cliff because of climate change (it's hot, you know). He is launched up in the air at a velocity of 20m/s in a direction making an angle of 25 degrees upward with the horizontal. What is the magnitude of the velocity of the crazy person just before it hits the ground?
I have no idea to how to start to this question: Wags (a dog) decides to go on a journey. He begins his journey by traveling 58 meters in a direction directly south. He then runs 100.0 meters in a direction 30◦north of west. During the last leg of his journey, he follows a scent for 59 meters in a direction 30◦east of north. What distance does Wags end up from his initial startingpoint?
A person is standing on top of a building. While standing at the edge of the building the person throws a water balloon downward with a speed of 14 m/s and at an angle of 44° below the horizontal. It takes 2.9 s for the water balloon to hit the person's friend. (a) How high is the building in meters? (b) How fast is the water balloon moving when it hits the friend on the ground? Give your answer in m/s. (c) What was the horizontal distance between the friend on the ground and the building in meters?
A ball is thrown at 40° above the horizontal. The horizontal component of the baseball's initial velocity is 12 m/s. What is the magnitude of the ball's initial velocity
You hit a golf ball from the (level) ground, with an initial speed and an initial angle. Ignore air resistance. (This is very unrealistic.) The initial speed is v0 = 23.7 m/s, and the angle the ball is hit at is θ = 46o. Calculate vx0, the initial horizontal component of velocity (in m/s). What equations describe the trajectory of the golf ball?
