A spaceship is traveling through deep space towards a space station and needs to make a course correction to go around anebula. The captain orders the ship to travel 2.9 x 106 kilometers before turning 70° and traveling 2.7 x 106 kilometersbefore assuming the path towards the space station. If the captain had not ordered a course correction, what would havebeen the magnitude (in kilometers) and direction (in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis) of the path of thespaceship if it had instead traveled directly through the nebula?magnitudedirectionspaceshipkmnebulawwwspace stationcounterclockwise from the +x-axis

We will first resolve the displacements of spaceship along x and y directions, then we add the…

Vector V1 is 5.0 units long and points along the negative x-axis. Vector V2 is 10.0 units long and points at an angle of 30.0 degrees above the positive x-axis. (a) Find the x and y components of the vector sum V2 + V1 and then determine the magnitude and direction of the vector sum V2+V1. (b) Sketch the vector sum V2+V1 on a grid.
A hiker walks 2.5 miles in a direction 65° West of North, then 3.5 miles in a direction 40° South of West, then 1.5 miles due South. What must be the vector displacement of the hiker during the fourth part of the trip in order for the resultant to be 5.5 miles due West for the entire trip? Drawing a vector diagram or drawing individual vectors will help.
A map suggests that Atlanta is 730 miles in a direction 5.00° north of east from Dallas. The same map shows that Chicago is 560 miles in a direction 21.0° west of north from Atlanta. The figure below shows the location of these three cities. Modeling the Earth as flat, use this information to find the displacement from Dallas to Chicago. magnitude 334.15 direction 52.27 Chicago Dallas 560 mi 730 mi X mi Xnorth of east of Dallas 5.00 21.0° Atlanta
A ferry transports tourists among three islands. It sails from the first island to the second island, 5.84 km away, in a direction 37.0° north of east. It then sails from the second island to the third island in a direction 58.5° west of north. Finally, it returns to the first island, sailing in a direction 28.0° east of south. (a) Calculate the distance between the second and third islands. Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. km (b) Calculate the distance between the first and third islands. km
A hiking girl needs to go 39.2 km straight North to get to base camp, instead the compass confuses her and she travels 17.248 km at a 3.9° deflection East from straight North. Then she realizes what she has done and so guesses an angle of 17.8° deflection West of straight North and then hikes 30.576 km. What is the magnitude of her displacement from where she is now located to base camp. (put your answer is standard units)
It takes a golfer three strokes to get a golf ball into a hole. On the first hit, the ball moves 6.0 m to the east. On the second hit, it moves 2.9 m at an angle of 20 ° north of east. On the third hit, it moves 0.50 m to the north. If the golfer had struck the ball directly into the hole in one stroke, what would have been the magnitude (in m) and the direction of the ball's displacement? Indicate direction as a positive angle measured counterclockwise from east.
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 East
Gabby works as an aerial photographer. On one trip she takes off from the airport and flies 52km on a bearing N46°E. She then turns and flies for 43km until she is due east of the airport. How far is Gabby from the airport when she is due east of it? Is there more than one answer, explain.
A plane is flying at a speed of 320 miles per hour on a bearing of N65°E. Its ground speed is 390 miles per hour and its true course, given by the direction angle of the ground speed vector, is 30°. Find the speed, in miles per hour, and the direction angle, in degrees, of the wind. The speed of the wind is miles per hour. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
