In 1999, Robbie Knievel was the first to jump the Grand Canyon on a motorcycle. At a narrow part of the canyon (69.0 m wide) and traveling 35.8 m/s off the takeoff ramp, he reached the other side. What was his launch angle?
A small aircraft for one person is used on a short horizontal flight. On its journey from A to B, lhe resultant velocity of the aireraft is 15 m s in a direction 60° east of north and the wind velocity is 7.5 ms due north. N 4 60 A Figure 1.20 Show that for the aircraft to travel from A to B it should be pointed a due east. b After flying 5 km from A to B. the aircraft returns along the same path from B to A with a resultant velocity of 13.5ms-.

Mimi leaves home to travel 6.5mi due east. Then She goes 3mi due south and in the last leg she goes 4mi, 25degrees W of S. Give her total distance traveled, what is her displacement and my angle and direction.
An airplane leaves the runway heading south and flies for 2000km. It then heads 20 degree west to avoid a storm. After flying for 500km, it turns 40 degree toward the east and flies another 400km to its final destination. Calculate the displacement of the plane;s destination and the distance it travelled.
A cart starting from rest at a height of 1.00 m above a tabletop can roll down two different ramps—one that goes in a straight line from A to B at a 15º incline, and one that descends at a 30º incline from A and is then level until B. Calculate the time it takes for the car to get from A to B along each ramp. The answers are 1.74 s and 1.35 s. I need help on some of the steps
