Question
  1. An airplane heads due north at 100 m/s being blown by the wind at 500 m/s due East. Draw it's graph. Determine the resultant velocity of the airplane.
  2. After several tries of measuring, Lydia gets the results of 2.75, 2.76, 2.30 cm. She realized that the results of measurement is closest to the actual measurement which is 3.25. What is the implication of her measurements? Is it Accurate and precise?
  3. I measured the length of cabinet 3 times. The results of my measurements are 3.44 m, 3.55 m, 3.47 m. Afterwards, I compared it to the results with each other. What did I was trying to find out? Is it precision?
