Answer:
The drift angle is approximately 7.65° towards the East from the plane's heading
Step-by-step explanation:
The speed of the plane = 350 mph
The direction in which the plane flies N 40° E = 50° counterclockwise from the eastern direction
The speed of the wind = 40 mph
The direction of the wind = S 70° E = 20° clockwise from the eastern direction
The component velocities of the plane are;
= (350 × cos 50)·i + (350 × sin 50)·j
= (40 + cos 20)·i - (40 × sin 40)·j
The resultant speed of the plane = +
= 265.915·i +242.404·j
The direction the plane is heading = tan⁻¹(242.404/265.915) ≈ 42.35°
Therefore, the drift angle = Actual Angle - Direction of the plane = 50 - 42.35 ≈ 7.65° towards the East
Answer:
Ordinarily a graph like this will have arrowheads on the ends of the curve, indicating the curve continues on in the same direction. Here, we have to assume the existence of such arrowheads in order to choose a sensible answer.
As x goes to -∞, the curve continues to increase toward +∞. This is not an answer choice.
As x goes to +∞, the curve continues to decrease toward -∞. This matches the third answer choice.
