3. It is September of 1936, and the Kenyan aviatrix Beryl Markham is attempting the first solo flight of the Atlantic from east to west in a specially outfitted Vega Gull, against the prevailing winds of the North Atlantic jet stream. Her plan is to fly from London to New York, proving the potential for commercial airline routes. Her initial heading (direction she points the nose of the plane) is 288 degrees. Note, in navigation, directions are measured clockwise from north At 10,000 feet, the winds are going southwesterly at 235 degrees with wind velocity of about 50 knots. The Vega Gull flies at a top airspeed of 150 knots (relative to still air). What direction is she flying relative to the ground? What will be the plane's groundspeed, i.e., the plane's speed relative to the ground?
10. Mary and Debra stand on a snow-covered roof. They both throw snowballs with the same initial speed, but in different directions. Mary throws her snowball downward, at 30° below the horizontal; Debra throws her snowball upward, at 30° above the horizontal. Which of the following statements are true about just before the snowballs reach the ground below? (There are two correct answers, please pick one of the two.) * Mary's snowball will stay in the air longer than Debra's. Both snowballs will take the same amount of time to hit the ground. Debra's snowball will stay in the air longer than Mary's. Mary's snowball has a greater downward acceleration than Debra's. Debra's snowball has the exact same acceleration as Mary's. Sign out
