Canadian 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. If one such bird is flying at 100 km/h relative to the air, but there is a 34.0 km/h wind blowing from west to east.At what angle relative to the north-south direction should this bird head so that it will be traveling directly southward relative to the ground?

Answer:

θ=19.877⁰

Explanation:

Given data

Velocity Va=34.0 km/h

Velocity Va=100 km/h

To find

Angle θ

Solution  

We want the bird to fly with velocity Vb=100 km/h with an angle θ relative to the ground so that the bird fly due south relative to the ground.From figure which is attached we got

Sinθ=(Va/Vb)

Sinθ=(34.0/100)

θ=Sin⁻¹(34.0/100)

θ=19.877⁰

Would you be doing more work going up the stairs twice as fast?
SSSSS [86.1K]
If you use the stairs at normal speed, you will survive longer, and go up higher.
When going up the stairs twice as fast, you lose energy more quickly, but height would remain the same.

A particle moving along the x-axis has its position described by the function x=(3.00t3−1.00t 2.00)m where t is in s. at t = 4.0
prohojiy [21]
X =(3.00x4.00 x3-1.00t x 2.00) x m

x= (12.00x3- 1.00 x2.00) x m
x= 36.00 -1.00 x 2.00) x m
x = (36.00 -2.00) x m
x =( 34.00) x m
x =34.00   times m

AleksAgata [21]
The hypotenuse is measured at 120 meters of string, and you need to solve for the leg of the triangle that is horizontal. The degree is 40, so use trigonometry to figure it out. 
Cosin (40) is equal to around .766 
Adjacent/Hypotenuse 
x/120 = cos40 
Answer: 91.92533. 
If you use 3 significant figures it should be 91.9 meters.
