Question
Indian Ocean from land to Vivekananda Rock a distance of 450 m) Assume that (relative to the ground) the ocean current at that location has a fixed speed towards the southYou find that to proceed due east, you need to swim at an angle of 28east of north, at a speed of 1.6m / s relative to the water. What is the speed of the water relative to the ground ?

The object is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance of 12 lbs when the object has a velocity of 4 ft/sec. Suppose the object is lifted an additional 3 inches and released. Find an equation for the object's displacement, u(t), in feet after t seconds. u(t) : Remember that, in imperial units, acceleration due to gravity is 32 ft/s? and that Ibs are a measurement of force. Be sure to convert any measurements necessary so that the units match.arrow_forward
