Chinook salmon can cover more distance in less time by periodically making jumps out of the water. Suppose a salmon swimming in still water jumps out of the water with velocity 6.03 m/s at 40.6° above the horizontal, re-enters the water a distance L upstream, and then swims the same distance L underwater in a straight, horizontal line with velocity 2.92 m/s before jumping out again. Where L=3.67 m; t1= 0.801 sec this is a time when fish are over the water; t2= 1.256 sec; Ttotal =2.057 sec; the average horizontal velocity is 3.57 m/s. Consider the interval of time necessary to travel 2L. How is this reduced by the combination of jumping and swimming compared with just swimming at the constant speed of 2.92 m/s? Express the reduction as a percentage.
A Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II jet takes off from an aircraft carrier with a runway length of 107 m and a takeoff speed 77 m/s at the end of the runway. Jets are catapulted into airspace from the deck of an aircraft carrier with two sources of propulsion: the jet propulsion and the catapult. At the point of leaving the deck of the aircraft carrier, the F-35's acceleration decreases to a constant acceleration of 4.8 m/s2 at 23° with respect to the horizontal.

For this problem, you can think of the jet stream as a river of air. Across the United States, the jet stream usually moves from west to east. We will assume that the jet stream is moving in its usual direction at 9.00 x 101 km/hr. On a particular day, you need to pilot a plane from one city to another that is 4.50 x 102 km directly to the south. The top speed of the aircraft in still air is 285 km/hr. (a) Make a sketch to represent what is happening in this problem. Label all quantities that you know. (b) Using cardinal directions (north, east, south, west) to give a heading, which direction should you aim the plane to reach the city directly to the south at top speed? (c) How fast (in km/hr) would you be moving relative to the ground? (c) How much time (in hr) will it take you to reach your destination?
A space vehicle is coasting at a constant velocity of 17.8 m/s in the +y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires a RCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.280 m/s2 in the +x direction. After 33.6 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle (in degrees) measured from the +y direction.
