Two radio transmitters positioned 400 mi apart along the shore send simultaneous signals to a ship that is 200 mi offshore and sailing parallel to the shoreline. The signal from transmitter S reaches the ship 200 microseconds later than the signal from transmitter T. The signals travel at a speed of 186,000 miles per second, or 0.186 mile per microsecond. Find the equation of the hyperbola with foci S and T on which the ship is located. (Hint: For any point on the hyperbola, the absolute value of the difference of its distances from the foci is 2a.) 200 mi 400 mi Ship

SHOW THE SOLUTION: One morning, Connie walks from her house to go to a store that is 500 ft, S 40o W from her house. She starts walking 120 ft, SW; then continues walking 100 ft, 10o S of E; then sees a friend who is 700 ft, 30o N of E from where she is. What is her friend’s location, (magnitude and direction) relative to her house? (Answer: 667.54 ft, 21.79o N of E) From her friend’s location, how far and in what direction should Connie walk to finally get to the store? (Answer: 1133.08 ft, 33.83o S of W)

An automobile P is traveling along a circular track of radius R=958.4 m. At position "A" on the track, the automobile has a speed of UA = 10.3 m/s. At this position, the driver of the automobile applies the brakes causing the speed of the automobile to change with distance s traveled along the track according to the following equation: U(S) = VA COS(0.001s) m/s (cos is in radians), where s is given in meters. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration for the driver when the automobile reaches position "B" on the track where "B" is a quarter of the distance around the track from position "A".
