A pilot flies in a straight path for 1 h 30 min. She then makes a course correction, heading 10 degrees to the right of her orig

inal course, and flies 2 h in the new direction. If she maintains a constant speed of 690 mi/h, how far is she from her starting position

Answer:

2406 miles

Explanation:

Let A be the starting position, B the junction position and C the final position after flying the 3.5 hrs. Also, let b be the distance from the starting point:

\angle ABC =(180-10) \textdegree=170\textdegree

#Distance traveled in 1.5hrs is;

c=690x1.5\\=1035mi

#Distance traveled in next two hrs:

a=690\times 2\\=1380mi

#Now using the Cosine Rule:

b^2=a^2+c^2-2ab\cos B\\\\=1380^2+1035^2-2(1380)(1035)cos170\textdegree\\\\b^2=5788.83\\\\b\approx 2406.00 \ mi

Hence, the pilot is 2406 miles from her starting position.

In diving to a depth of 248 m, an elephant seal also moves 296 m due east of his starting point. What is the magnitude of the se
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The displacement is 386.16m

Explanation:

A seal dives to a depth of 248m. To find displacement, we must calculate the resultant vectors which will give us the displacement

R= sqrt(vector1+vector2)

Since this is a right angle triangle

R= sqrt(248^2 + 296^2)

R= sqrt(149120)

R= 386.16m

Displacement = 386.16m
