- A fishing boat leaves port on a bearing of 33° and travels 12.7 mi. The boat then turns due east and travels 2.4mi. How far is the fishing boat from port, and what is the bearing from port? Option 1: 14.2mi; 8.2° Option 2: 14.2mi; 41.2° Option 3: 11.6mi; 41.2° Option 4: 10.8mi; 8.2°Use your knowledge of bearing, heading, and true course to sketch a diagram that will help you solve the problem.A plane is flying with an airspeed of 140 miles per hour and heading 150°. The wind currents are running at 30 miles per hour at 175° clockwise from due north. Use vectors to find the true course and ground speed of the plane. (Round your answers to the nearest ten for the speed and to the nearest whole number for the angle.)mi/hr with heading °Joseph sails from a point A on a bearing of N40°E for 3 km to a point B. At B the Joseph alters course and sails for 5 km on a bearing of N160°E to a point C. Find the distance AC and the bearing of A from C.
- A plane with a speed relative to still air of 78.5m/s is heading due south. After one hour an observer on the ground below sees that the plan has only traveled 255 km, and that the plane is 25.0°to the westof a direct path south. (a) What is the magnitude of the wind velocity? (b) What is the angle of the wind velocity relative to due west?A sailboat sets out from the U.S. side of Lake Erie for a point on the Canadian side, 97.0 km due north. The sailor, however, ends up 56.0 km due east of the starting point. (a) How far and (b) in what direction (west of due north) must the sailor now sail to reach the original destination?A hiking girl needs to go 24.8 km straight North to get to base camp, instead the compass confuses her and she travels 11.904 km at a 6.1° deflection East from straight North. Then she realizes what she has done and so guesses an angle of 15.5° deflection West of straight North and then hikes 19.592 km. What is the magnitude of her displacement from where she is now located to base camp. (put your answer is standard units)
- Two 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?Joe lives on Horizontal Road (which runs east-west),which intersects Vertical Expressway (which runs north-south).Aldi and Lidl are both located on Vertical Expressway, with Aldi being 3.4 miles south of Lidl. Joe’s house is 5.9 miles from Lidl on a bearing of 201.8 degrees . What is the bearing of Joe’s house from Aldi ?A boat travels on a course of 40.0° north of east for a distance of 300 km. How far north and how far east of its starting point does the boat sail?
- An airplane pilot wishes to fly to his destination 500 mi due west, but the wind is blowing at 28.7 mi/hr toward 25.7° north of west. The speed of the plane relative to the air is 169.1 mi/hr. At what angle (south of west) must the pilot orient the plane in order to fly to his destination directly? If the pilot orients the plane at that angle, what will be the speed of the plane relative to the ground?A ship sails 400 miles due east. It then sails north 45 degrees West for 200 miles. Where is the ship located, distance and angle?A plane flies at a speed of 360 mph on a bearing of S45°E. Relative to the ground, the plane's speed is measured as 335 mph with a true bearing of S35°E. Round answers to the nearest whole unit.
