Explanation Given information: The space shuttle is being launched at an 30 ∘ angle to the east of due north. Formula used: The relation between the x , y , x ' , y ' is given by x ' = x cos θ + y sin θ y ' = − x sin θ + y cos θ Calculation: We need to find the coordinate of the points ( 18 , 0 ) which is the wind vector v = ( 18 , 0 ) in the x’y’ system determined by the shuttle. The space shuttle is being launched at 30 ∘ angle to the east of due north. ⇒ θ = 90 ∘ − 30 ∘ = 60 ∘ The wind vector is v = ( 18 ,

Question 3 (5pt): A chemical reaction. In an elementary chemical reaction, single molecules of two reactants A and B form a molecule of the product C : ABC. The law of mass action states that the rate of reaction is proportional to the product of the concentrations of A and B: d[C] dt = k[A][B] (where k is a constant positive number). Thus, if the initial concentrations are [A] = = a moles/L and [B] = b moles/L we write x = [C], then we have (E): dx dt = k(ax)(b-x) 1 (a) Write the differential equation (E) with separate variables, i.e. of the form f(x)dx = g(t)dt.
