Answer:
The average speed of the elevator going down in the abandoned mine is 17.722mph.
Explanation:
If the elevator takes 90 seconds to descend a height of 713m, the average speed of the elevator is:

And if 1m/s is 2.23694mph, the average speed is:
.
Answer:
Explanation:
To find Sammy's course you have to add the two velocities (vectors), 18 mph 327º and 4 mph 60º.
To add the two vectors analytically you decompose each vector into their vertical and horizontal components.
<u>1. 18 mph 327º</u>
- Horizontal component: 18 mph × cos (327º) = 15.10 mph
- Vertical component: 18 mph × sin (327º) = - 9.80 mph

<u>2. 4 mph 60º</u>
- Horizontal component: 4 mph × cos (60º) = 2.00 mph
- Vertical component: 4 mph × sin (60º) = 3.46 mph

<u>3. Addition:</u>
You add the corresponding components:

To find the magnitude use Pythagorean theorem:
<u>4. Direction:</u>
Use the tangent ratio:
Find the inverse:
