- The river runs straight north-south with a current 4mph south. You paddle straight from west to east and your paddling speed is 3mph. Determine your actual speed and direction on a compass. (0 degrees is north, 90 degrees is east, etc.)An airplane flies due north through the air at a speed of 75 m/s in a wind from the west at 10 m/s. What is the ground speed of the plane and what direction will it go?11
- Need help with this problemAn airplane pilot wishes to fly directly westward. According to the weather bureau, a wind of 75.0 km/hourkm/hour is blowing southward. The speed of the plane relative to the air (called the "air speed") as measured by instruments aboard the plane is 310 km/hourkm/hour . In which direction should the pilot head? a)What is the speed of the air relative to a person standing on the ground, vA/G? What is the speed of the plane relative to the air, vP/A?The second part of this question is part two- Find the magnitude of the trucks vertical component of displacement answer in units of m
- A small boat sailed straight north out of a harbor in strong east wind (blowing from west to east). After sailing for 120 minutes, it ended up hitting a buoy 60° to the north-east of the harbor. If the straight-line distance between the buoy and the harbor is 3 km, what is the speed of the east wind? Pick the correct answer O O O O 13. m/s 0.42 m/s 0.50 m/s 0.21 m/s 0.36 m/s East Wind ttt HarborAn airplane is heading due south at a speed of 540 km/h If a wind begins blowing from the southwest at a speed of 85.0 km/h (average). V ♥ Part A Calculate magnitude of the plane's velocity, relative to the ground. Part B Previous Answers Calculate direction of the plane's velocity, relative to the ground.

An Apollo astronaut lands on the moon and exits the Lunar Excursion Module (LEM) Starting at the base of the LEM, he drives the lunar rover 17 km at an angle of 28° south of lunar east. At this point, the rover breaks down, so he steps out of the rover and walks 12 km directly south and plants a flag pole. What is the displacement of the flag from the LEM?3. A flock of ducks is trying to migrate south for the winter, but they keep being blown off course by a wind blowing from the west at 14 m/sm/s . A wise elder duck finally realizes that the solution is to fly at an angle to the wind. If the ducks can fly at 15 m/s relative to the air, in what direction should they head in order to move directly south? Please answer in degrees west of south
