Third leg.
The crew flies at a speed of 560 mi/h in direction N-20°-E.
The wind has a speed of 35 mi/h and a direction S-10°-E.
We then can draw this as:
We have to add the two vectors to find the actual speed and direction.
We will start by adding the x-coordinate (W-E axis):
and the y-coordinate (S-N axis) is:
Then, the actual speed vector is v3=(197.61, 491.76).
The starting location for the third leg is R2=(216.66, 167.67) [taken from the previous answer].
Then, we have to calculate the displacement in 20 minutes using the actual speed vector.
We can calculate the movement in each of the axis. For the x-axis:
NOTE: 20 minutes represents 1/3 of an hour.
We can do the same with the y-coordinate:
The final position is R3 = (282.53, 331.59).
To find the distance from the origin and direction, we transform the cartesian coordinates of R3 into polar coordinates:
The distance can be calculated as if it was a right triangle:
The angle, from E to N, can be calculated as:
If we want to express it from N to E, we substract the angle from 90°:
Answer: the final location can be represented with the vector (282.53, 331.59).
1) The distance from the origin is 435.63 miles and
2) the direction is N-40°-E.
Answer:
b. the area to the right of 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X, which is also the area to the left of Z. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X, which is the area to the right of Z.
In this problem:
Percentage who did better:
P(Z > 2), which is the area to the right of 2.
