Answer:
The direction will be
and the distance 250.75km.
Explanation:
Let's say A is the displacement vector which represents the first 170km and B the one for the next 230km. Then the components of these vector will be:

The vector which point from the origin to the final position of the plane will be R=A+B. We sum components on <em>x </em>and <em>y </em>independetly (vector property):


If
is the direction of R then:
⇒
⇒
.
The distance will be given by the magnitud of the vector R:
⇒
.
Point C would the greatest
No. They are different. The bird's distance for that period of time is double the height of the nest above the ground. His displacement for the same time is zero ... the length between the start point and end point.
Explanation:
Work done by winch = kinetic energy of car
∫ T ds = ½ mv²
∫ 225s ds = ½ mv²
225/2 s² = ½ mv²
225 s² = mv²
v = 15s / √m
Given s = 10 m and m = 2500 kg:
v = 15 (10) / √2500
v = 3 m/s
