- An airplane flies 3 km due north from one city to another. Its airspeed is 132 m/s and a constant wind blows at 42.7 m/s directly west during the flight. How many degrees east of north, 0, must the pilot point the plane so that it moves due north over the ground? 0 =A ship sets sail from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, heading due north at 5.00 m/s relative to the water. The local ocean current is 1.54 m/s in a direction 40° north of east. What is the velocity of the ship relative to the earth? m/s ° N of ETwo ships A and B leave the same port at 3:00 p.m. Ship takes a course N 43°43'W at 30 km per hour while B sails due north. At 5:00 pm., B is directly east of A. What is the speed of ship B and what is the distance between the two ships?
- 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 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?

- 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 has an airspeed of 590 km/h bearing 49° north of east.

Units ?In an attempt to escape his island, Gilligan builds a raft and sets to sea. The wind shifts a great deal during the day, and he is blown along the following straight lines: 2.50 km 45.0° north of west; then 4.20 km 60.0° south of east; then 1.50 km 25.0° south of west; then 5.30 km straight east; then 1.90 km 5.00° east of north; then 7.20 km 55.0° south of west; and finally 2.90 km 10.0° north of east. What is his final position relative to the island? (i.e., find the magnitude and direction of the displacement.) km at degrees South of EastA sailboat sails from Marblehead Harbor directly east for 45 nautical miles, then 60 degree south of east for 20 nautical miles, returns to an easterly heading for 30 nautical miles, and sails 30 degreeeast of north for 10 nautical miles, then west for 62 nautical miles. At that time the boat becomes becalmed and the auxiliary engine fails to start. The crew decides to notify the Coast Guard of their position. What is their position?
