In an attempt to escape a desert island, a castaway builds a raft and sets out to sea. The wind shifts a great deal during the day and he is blown along the following directions: 2.50 km and 45.0 north of west, then 4.70 km and 60.0 south of east, then 1.30 km and 25.0 south of west, then 5.10 km straight east, then 1.70 km and 5.00 east of north, then 7.20 km and 55.0 south of west, and finally 2.80 km and 10.0 north of east. Use a graphical method to find the castaway’s final position relative to the island.
A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 130 m high. The ball strikes the ground 78 m horizontally from the point of release. What is the speed of the ball just before it strikes the ground? Answer in units of m/s.
An airplane flies horizontally at a speed of 477 km/h and drops a crate that falls to the horizontal ground below. Neglect air resistance. A) If the altitude of the plane was 576 m, then how far, horizontally in meters, did the crate move as it fell to the ground? B) What was the speed of the crate, in m/s, just before it hit the ground?
A rocket was launched to hit the terrorist’ hideout at a velocity of 15 000 ft/s at a target 300 mi away. At what angle must it be fired to hit the target? How long after it is fired will the target be hit? If the terrorist discovered the point to eliminate them 2 minutes after the rocket was launched, will they escape alive? Explain.
