- An explorer is caught in a whiteout (in which the snowfall is so thick that the ground cannot be distinguished from the sky) while returning to base camp. He was supposed to travel due north for 5.3 km, but when the snow clears, he discovers that he actually traveled 8.4 km at 46° north of due east. (a) How far and (b) in what direction (south of due west) must he now travel to reach base camp? (a) Number i Units km (b) Number i Units ° (degrees)A ship sets out to sail to a point 142 km due north. An unexpected storm blows the ship to a point 130 km due east of its starting point. (a) How far and (b) in what direction (as an angle from due east, where north of east is a positive angle) must it now sail to reach its original destination?A plane is flying with an airspeed of 325 mph is headed in the direction 86.7°.

He has determined that in 3.0 hours the boat has travelled 24 km south and 62 km west. Determine:A GPS tracking device is placed in a police dog to monitor its whereabouts relative to the police station. At time t₁ = 23 min, the dog's displacement from the station is 1.2 km, 33° north of east. At time t₂ = 57 min, the dog's displacement from the station is 2.0 km, 75° north of east.

- An airplane is travelling N30°E at an airspeed of 340 km/h when it encounters a wind blowing north at 100 km/h. Determine the resultant groundspeed of the airplane, magnitude only. Include a sketch. Show all steps. Round all answers to 1 decimal place if needed.A small airplane starts flying at a constant speed of 398 km/h on a heading of N83W. A 97 km/h wind is blowing from N25E. Determine the ground velocity of the airplane. Give direction as a quadrant bearingInclude diagram showing the vector addition with your solution. only HANDWRITTEN answer needed ( NOT TYPED)Canada geese migrate essentially along a north-south direction for well over a thousand kilometers in some cases, traveling at speeds up to about 100 km/h. One goose is flying at 100 km/h relative to the air but a 30 km/h wind is blowing from west to east. At what angle relative to the north-south direction should this bird head to travel directly southward relative to the ground? How long will it take the goose to cover a ground distance of 450 km from north to south? (Note: Even on cloudy nights, many birds can navigate using the earth's magnetic field to fix the north-south direction.)
