- An airplane is flying in the direction of 30° west of north. Windis blowing at 40 miles per hour from the south.a) What is the projection of the wind vector in the direction the airplaneis headed?b) What is the projection of the wind vector in the directionperpendicular to the direction the airplane is headed?An airplane needs to head due north, but there is a wind blowing from the southwest at 80 km/hr. The plane flies with an airspeed of 890 km/hr. To end up flying due north, how many degrees west of north will the pilot need to fly the plane? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)A sailboat sets out from the U.S. side of Lake Erie for a point on the Canadian side, 89.0 km due north. The sailor, however, ends up 43.0 km due east of the starting point. (a) How far must the sailor now sail to reach the original destination? (b) In what direction must she sail? (counterclockwise from due east)
- An aircraft takes off from Seattle (latitude 47.45 degrees north) on a great circle route. What must the azinkith be, at takeoff, such that the most northerly point on the route is on the Arctic Circle (latitude 66.5 degrees north)? (degrees)Starting in Albany, you travel a distance 101 miles in a direction 37.1 degrees north of west. Then, from this new position, you travel another distance 355 miles in a direction 10.2 degrees north of east. In your final position, what is your displacement from Albany? If the correct answer doesn't appear among the choices, choose the answer that has the correct distance and angle, even if the direction reference (north of east or north of west) is incorrect. a. 456 miles 47.3 degrees North of Westb. 246 miles 46.1 degrees North of Westc. 456 miles 47.3 degrees North of Eastd. 296 miles 24.7 degrees North of WestYou are driving south along the shore of the Mississippi River. At this point it is flowing due South. You notice a prominent radio tower right on the far shore, at a bearing of 115 degrees. You drive on for 2 miles and notice that now the radio tower appears at a bearing of 55 degrees. You figure that at this point the Mississippi river is -------- miles wide. Round to two decimal places.
