A paper airplane is thrown westward at a rate of 6 m/s. The wind is blowing at 8 m/s towards the north. Which of the following d
iagrams best illustrates the actual path of the airplane?
1 answer:
since airplane is thrown towards west with speed 6 m/s
while air is blowing with speed 8 m/s towards north
so here the net speed of air plane will be the resultant of airplane speed and wind speed always
SO here we can say it would be a combination of vector along west with must be of length 6 m/s and other vector is towards north with is of length 8 m/s
so correct answer must be 1st option

Answer:
V = - 0.5 [m/s]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must use the principle of relative speeds. This is for an observer who is on the edge of the river he can see how the river moves to the left and the woman tries to move to the right but can not since:
That is, the person sees how the woman moves to the left but with avelocity of 0.5 [m/s] to the left
