Question

For the winter, a duck flies 10.0 m/s due south against a gust of wind with a velocity of 2.5 m/s north. What is the resultant velocity of the duck?

a. 12.5 m/s south

b. 12.5 m/s north

c. 7.5 m/s south

d. 7.5 m/s north

e. 10.3 m/s south

Answer 1

Answer #1

Xelocity of duck, V = 10.0m/s (-J) WrLE xelocity of wind Va = 2.5m/s (5) Resuetant velocity a Vd of Vou = 10.0(+3) + 2.5 (1)

Answer 2

Answer #2

10.0-2.5=7.5m/s

At one instant a bicyclist is 40.0m due east of a park's flagpole, going due south with a speed of 10.0m/s. Then 30.0s later, the cyclist is 40.0m due north of the flagpole, going due east with a speed of 10.0 m/s. For the cyclist in the 30.0s interval, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the displacement, the (c) magnitude and(d) direction of the average velocity and the (e) magnitude and (f) direction of the average acceleration?

A 321-kg boat is sailing 10.0° north of east at a speed of 2.00 m/s. 30.0 s later, it is sailing 33.0° north of east at a speed of 4.10 m/s. During this time, three forces act on the boat: a 32.3-N force directed 10.0° north of east (due to an auxiliary engine), a 23.9-N force directed 10.0° south of west (resistance due to the water), and (due to the wind). Find the (a) the magnitude and (b) direction of...
