The ducks' flight path as observed by someone standing on the ground is the sum of the wind velocity and the ducks' velocity relative to the wind:
ducks (relative to wind) + wind (relative to Earth) = ducks (relative to Earth)
or equivalently,

(see the attached graphic)
We have
- ducks (relative to wind) = 7.0 m/s in some direction <em>θ</em> relative to the positive horizontal direction, or

- wind (relative to Earth) = 5.0 m/s due East, or

- ducks (relative to earth) = some speed <em>v</em> due South, or

Then by setting components equal, we have


We only care about the direction for this question, which we get from the first equation:



or approximately 136º or 224º.
Only one of these directions must be correct. Choosing between them is a matter of picking the one that satisfies <em>both</em> equations. We want

which means <em>θ</em> must be between 180º and 360º (since angles in this range have negative sine).
So the ducks must fly (relative to the air) in a direction 224º relative to the positive horizontal direction, or about 44º South of West.
Answer:

Explanation:
<u>Displacement</u>
It is a vector that points to the final point where an object traveled from its starting point. If the object traveled to several points, then the individual displacements must be added as vectors.
The mail carrier leaves the post office and drives 2 km due north. The first displacement vector is

Then the carrier drives 7 km in 60° south of east. The displacement has two components in the x and y axis given by

Finally, he drives 9.5 km 35° north of east.

The total displacement is


The direction can be calculated with


Answer:
Answer is as follow:
Explanation:
With a distance of just 6,792 km, Mars is even smaller. And again, Venus would be almost Earth's double in terms of scale. It has 81 percent of the earth 's volume, while Mars has just 10 percent of the earth 's mass. Mars and Venus have very different ecosystems, and they are both very separate from Earth.
