The captain of a small plane starts his journey by proceeding east. The spee km/h. A sudden north wind starts to blow at a constant speed of 71.0 km/h he ground if no action is taken by the pilot? £60

4. Swims across Lake Erie are officially sanctioned by the Lake Erie Open Water Swimming Association. Your friend on the swim team wants to swim across the lake. The plan is that your friend will swim to Presque Isle starting at a location at Long Point, Ontario which is 24 miles due north of Presque Isle. You will be navigating a boat with a GPS. Your friend can maintain a speed of 1.80 mph in still water. All during the swim you observe that objects drifting in the water are moving at 0.70 mph to the east due to the current. a. What bearing should you maintain? That is what direction should you point the boat to reach Presque Isle? Give your answer relative to a compass direction (i.e., 30° north of west). Hint, you want your net velocity vector to be straight south. b. How long did it take your friend to swim across Lake Erie? c. What is the addition amount of time that your friend will need to swim compared to if there was no current (assume your friend swims at a constant rate)?

A jet airliner moving at 474 mph due east moves into a region where the wind is blowing at 326 mph in a direction 460 north of west. What is the new velocity of the aircraft?

A ship leaves a poor at 2o'clock on May 4. The ship is traveling at 28 knots on a bearing of 035. The next day at 4:15 the ship Pulls into its first stop. After unloading part of its contents and treating the crew to breakfast at Denny's the captain again said cell at 6:30. Due to the lighter load the captain Kranks the speed up to 45 knots heading due West. The ship arrives at its final stop exactly 24 hours later. The crew quickly unloads the ship in 30 minutes. With an empty ship the captain steer the ship home at a whopping 60 knots b) how far do the ship travel altogether on this trip c) what was the bearing when it's heading home

A boat traveling across a river has a resultant velocity of 10 km/h and travels 34 degrees with respect to the shore.  A) What is the boats velocity in m/s?     B) What is the velocity of the river in m/s?

A ship is headed due north at a constant 14 miles per hour. Because of the ocean current, the true course of the ship is 15°. If the currents are a constant 12 miles per hour, in what direction are the currents running?  ???   °

In the next 1.55 h the hurricane moves due north so that B = 0.It moves north an additional distance west в |km/h |km. h) = north = V2At2 |

1. Draw a vector to represent each of the following physical quantities. Choose an appropriate coordinate system. a. A displacement of 40 km in the negative y-direction. b. A velocity of 30 m/s at 5° below the negative x-axis. C. An acceleration of 5 m/s² due east. d. A force of 30 N at 15° south of west.

On a day when the wind is blowing toward the south at 3 m/s , a runner west at 1.9 m/s.wh s.what is the magnitude of velocity of the air relative to the runner? Calculate answer to one decimal

Dynamics Help!   If a baseball player throws a ball a horizontal distance of 100 m in 4 seconds at 45° latitude, by how much is it deflected laterally if he throws toward the east? a) Starting from the appropriate component either du/dt, dv/dt, or dw/dt find an expression for v (no numbers just the variables) b) Find an expression for y (again no numbers, find the equation c) Calculate the actual meridional deflection using the appropriate numbers given in the problem and explain or describe in words what this number means (specific direction)
