An SR-71 reconnaissance aircraft, the world's fastest aircraft, is flying east at 3000 km/h. a. If the plane encounters a crosswind of 300 km/h that is directed to the north, what is the magnitude and direction with resultant velocity? b. If the border lies along a straught north/south line, will it take the plane, more, less, or the same amount of time to reach the eastern border if there were no crosswind?

What distance did the seal cover in making this dive? c. What was the seal’s speed, in m/s?
You are traveling to the North-East at 50 m/s. Simultaneously you are being pushed towards the East at a speed of 10 m/s. a. If you proceed in this manner for 10 minutes, what is the displacement vector from the t=0 location? b. How far do you travel in the East direction during these 10 mins.?
While vacationing in the mountains you do some hiking. In the morning, your displacement is S morning =(2000 m, east) +(3000 m, north) + (200 m, vertical). After lunch, your displacement is S afternoon = (1500 m,west) + (2000 m, north) - (300 m, vertical). a. At the end of the hike, how much higher or lower are youcompared to your starting point? b. What is the magnitude of your net displacement for the day?
A ball is thrown following a projectile motion.It is known that the horizontal distance (range) the ball can travel is given by R=v0²/g sin 20 ,where r is the range (in feet) ,v0 is the initial speed (in ft/s),0 is the angle of elevation the ball is thrown and g=32 ft/s² is the acceleration due to gravity. A. Express the new range in terms of the original range when an angle 0(0
The Lost Drone. You and your team are exploring the edge of an Antarctic mountain range and you send a drone ahead to help navigate. After takeoff you lose sight of the drone and, a few seconds later, the controls malfunction and the drone stops sending visual images and navigational information except for speed and directional data. Changing speeds erratically, the drone heads west until it makes a drastic turn at the 5-minute mark to -30° east of south. After nearly ten minutes, the speed drops to zero and the drone stops sending data. It has crashed. Using the speed/directional data, the team draws up the graph shown below. (a) How far is the drone from you? (b) In what direction must you go to retrieve it? Express your result as a geographical direction west of south. 24 (a) Number i (b) Number i Velocity v (m/s) 18 12 6 0 0 100 WEST Units Units 200 300 Time t (s) 3° East of South 400 west of south. 500 600

Also, What is the speed of the package as it hits the ground? c.With what angle (below the horizontal) does the pack strike the ground? Please show work for all of the parts.
Whale sharks swim forward while ascending or descending. They swim along a straight-line path at a shallow angle as they move from the surface to deep water or from the depths to the surface. In one recorded dive, a shark started 50 m below the surface and swam at 0.85 m/s along a path tipped at a 13° angle above the horizontal until reaching the surface. a. What was the horizontal distance between the shark's starting and ending positions?
