- A few seconds after a plane took off it was hit by a missile launched from a distance on the ground. The path of the plane is described by y= (0.0005 x²) m. The missile traveled along a parabolic path described by y = (160 x), where the coordinates are measured in meters. If the components of the missile velocity in the horizontal and vertical directions are constant at v; =120 m/s and v, = 100 m/s, respectively, and the plane was rising with a constant upward velocity v, = 12 m/s, determine the magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration of the plane the moment it was hit by the missile. y y = (0.0005 x²) y? = (160 x) Xarrow_forwardAs it passes over Grand Bahama Island, the eye of a hurricane is moving in a direction 63.0° north of west with a speed of 40.2 km/h.
