- An airplane has an air velocity of 500 km/h [N 30 E] and encounters a wind from [S 75 W] at 180 km/h, find the ground velocity. Make sure you draw a big, labelled diagram.arrow_forward20. Which equation represents the same curve as y = 3sin (x – 50°) a. y = 3sin (x – 230°) b. y = -3sin (x – 50°) C. y = 3sin (x – 50°) d. y = 3sin (x + 310°) %3D - %3Darrow_forwardPlease solve part d. Thank you for your help!! An object is attached to the end of a vibrating spring and its displacement from its equilibrium position is y = 8e-t/2sin 4t, where t is measured in seconds and y is measured in centimeters. a. Graph the displacement function together with the functions y = 8e-t/2 and y = -8e-t/2. How are these graphs related? b. Use the graph to estimate the maximum value of the displacement. Explain whether or not it occurs when the graph touches the graph of y = 8e-t/2. c. What is the velocity of the object when it first returns to its equilibrium position? d. Use the graph to estimate the time after which the displacement is no more than 2 cm from equilibrium.arrow_forward
- 1. Find the points on the curve y = 19x² closest to the point (0, 2). (0.395 2.973) and (-0.395, 2.973)arrow_forwardSome birds fly more slowly over water than over land. A bird flies at constant rate of 6 km/h over water and 10 km/h over land. To minimize the total flying time between the shore of one island and its nest, the bird will chose a path similar to the one represented in the diagram below. Given the measurements in the diagram, write the total time to fly from the island to the nest, as a function of the angle a between the direct line from one shore to the other and the flying line. Use optimization techniques to find the angle of flight that will ensure the shortest amount of time necessary for the bird to fly from the island to the nest.arrow_forwardPlease help with #5. Thanks!arrow_forward
- Suppose that a bee is approaching a flower following the trajectory x = t° – 3t, y = t². Please note: Parts (a) and (b) should be written on one page, parts (c) and (d) - on the next page. (a) Find equation(s) of the tangent line(s) at (0, 3); (b) Find the coordinates of the points where the bee is flying horizontally and vertically; (c) Where is the trajectoty concave up and down? (d) Draw a rough sketch of the trajectory, indicating your findings about tangent lines. Hint: Use values of t = +2, ±V3, ±1,0.arrow_forwardfind the Jovisetive Y= 3x° sec(x).arrow_forward
