A plane is flying at a heading of 125° at a speed of 320 mph. The wind is blowing from due North at a speed of 35 mph. Find the

ground speed and the course of the plane. (Note: The course must be between 0° and 360°, where due North corresponds to a course of 0°, due East to a course of 90°, due South to a course of 180°, and due West to a course of 270°.)

Answer:

301.29\ \text{mph}

119.5^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

v_p = Velocity of plane = 320 mph

v_w = Velocity of wind = 35 mph

\theta = Angle between wind and plane directions = 125^{\circ}

From triangle law we have resultant

v_r=\sqrt{v_p^2+v_w^2+2v_pv_w\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow v_r=\sqrt{320^2+35^2+2\times 320\times 35\cos125^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=301.29\ \text{mph}

Direction is given by

\phi=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{v_p\sin\theta}{v_w+v_p\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow \phi=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{320\sin125^{\circ}}{35+320\cos125^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow \phi=-60.46^{\circ}=180-60.46=119.5^{\circ}

The magnitude of the plane is 301.29\ \text{mph} moving at an angle of 119.5^{\circ}.

Kryger [21]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\dfrac{10x^6y^3+20x^3y^2}{5x^3y}=2x^3y^2+4y}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{10x^6y^3+20x^3y^2}{5x^3y}=\dfrac{(5x^3y)(2x^3y^2)+(5x^3y)(4y)}{5x^3y}\\\\=\dfrac{5x^3y(2x^3y^2+4y)}{5x^3y}\qquad\text{cancel}\ 5x^3y\\\\=2x^3y^2+4y
