- An eagle dives toward the ground with a constant velocity of 4.70 m/s at 57.0° below the horizontal. The Sun is directly overhead and casts a shadow of the eagle directly below it. What is the speed (in m/s) of its shadow on level ground?An airplane flies due south at 160 km/h relative to the air. There is wind blowing at 92 km/h to the east relative to the ground. What are the planes spped and direction relative to the ground?An adventurer paddles a kayak across the current in wild river. She appears to an observer sitting on the riverbank to be travelling directly across the river at 90° to the riverbank, and the water velocity is parallel to the riverbank (in other words, downstream). To do this she must paddle at a constant velocity of 1.8 m/s relative to the water at an angle of 28° from the upstream direction. The river is 76 m wide. What is the speed of the water current? From the given options A 0.80 m/s B 1.6 m/s C 2.2 m/s D 1.9 m/s

- POESR A science student is riding on a flatcar of a train traveling along a strait, horizontal track at a constant speed of 15 m/s. The student throws a ball into the air along a path he judges to make an initial angle of 67° with the horizontal (toward the rear of the car) and to be in line with the track. The student's professor, who is standing on the ground nearby, observes the ball to rise vertically. With what initial speed does the professor see the ball rise? 10. 38.14 m/s D. 36.74 m/s A.
