Answer:

43,000: 4.3×10^4

0.0072: 7.2×10^-3

0.0000901: 9.01×10^-5

Step-by-step explanation:

scientific notation: a×10^b, where should be 0<a<10

Step 1. Count the zeros

Step 2. Look at the number left, and determine whether or not it fits in the range of [a]. If not, we divide or multiply 10 to get it fit

------------------------

43,000: 4.3×10^4 (since 43 does not fit, we divide by 10 to get it fit)

0.0072: 7.2×10^-3 (since 0.72 does not fit, we multiply 10 to get it fit)

0.0000901: 9.01×10^-5 (since 0.901 does not fit, we multiply 10 to get it fit)

Hope this helps!! :)

A ship leaves port at noon and has a bearing of S29oW. The ship sails at 20 knots. How many nautical miles south and how many na

ira [324]

Answer:

Approximately $58.2\; \text{nautical miles}$ (assuming that the bearing is ${\rm S$29^{\circ}$W}$ .)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $v$ denote the speed of the ship, and let $t$ denote the duration of the trip. The magnitude of the displacement of this ship would be $v\, t$ .

Refer to the diagram attached. The direction ${\rm S$29^{\circ}$W}$ means $29^{\circ}$ west of south. Thus, start with the south direction and turn towards west (clockwise) by $29^{\circ}$ to find the direction of the displacement of the ship.

The hypothenuse of the right triangle in this diagram represents the displacement of the ship, with a length of $v\, t$ . The dashed horizontal line segment represents the distance that the ship has travelled to the west (which this question is asking for.) The angle opposite to that line segment is exactly $29^{\circ}$ .

Since the hypotenuse is of length $v\, t$ , the dashed line segment opposite to the $\theta = 29^{\circ}$ vertex would have a length of:

$\begin{aligned}& \text{opposite (to $\theta$)} \\ =\; & \text{hypotenuse} \times \frac{\text{opposite (to $\theta$)}}{\text{hypotenuse}} \\ =\; & \text{hypotenuse} \times \sin (\theta) \\ =\; & v\, t \, \sin(\theta) \\ =\; & v\, t\, \sin(29^{\circ})\end{aligned}$ .

Substitute in $\begin{aligned} v &= 20\; \frac{\text{nautical mile}}{\text{hour}}\end{aligned}$ and $t = 6\; \text{hour}$ :

$\begin{aligned} & v\, t\, \sin(29^{\circ}) \\ =\; & 20\; \frac{\text{nautical mile}}{\text{hour}} \times 6\; \text{hour} \times \sin(29^{\circ}) \\ \approx\; & 58.2\; \text{nautical mile}\end{aligned}$ .
