Determine the direction in which Kayaker should paddle in order to travel straight across the harbour by using trigonometry concept. Next calculate, speed by using Pythagoras theorem, then find time by using relation between speed and time.
A right angle triangle is defined as in which one angle is right angle and the side opposite to the right angle is called as the hypotenuse which is the longest side of the right angle triangle.
In any right angle triangle as shown below:
The angle can be determined if the perpendicular and hypotenuse are known as:
And the Pythagoras theorem can be applied as:
The speed time formula is as:
(a)
The Kayaker need to paddle north across a wideharbor with a speed of
.But the tide is going out, creating a tidal current that flows to the east at
. This information can be represented in diagram form as:
To determine the direction in which Kayaker should paddle in order to travel straight across the harbour you have to determine the angle.
Since in this right angle triangle the perpendicular and hypotenuse are known therefore:
(b)
Since The Kayaker need to paddle north across a wideharbor with a speed of
.But the tide is going out, creating a tidal current that flows to the east at
. This information can be represented in diagram form as:
From the Pythagoras theorem the resultant speed is as:
From the speed time formula the time required to cross the harbour is as:
Therefore, substitute the distance of the harbour and the resultant speed
The kayaker should paddle towards North West to travel straight across the harbour.
The time required to cross the harbour is.
A kayaker needs to paddle north across a 100 -m wideharbor. The tide is going out,...
A kayaker needs to paddle north across a 90 m wide harbor. The tide is going out, creating a tidal current that flows to the east at 1.8 m/s. The kayaker can paddle with a speed of 2.8 m/s. (a) In which direction should he paddle in order to travel straight across the harbor? ° west of north (b) How long will it take him to cross? s

Read about Cokes strategy in Africa in the article below and discuss the ethics of selling soft drinks to very poor people. Is this an issue that a company like Coke should consider? Africa: Coke's Last Frontier Sales are flat in developed countries. For Coke to keep growing, Africa is it By Duane Stanford Piles of trash are burning outside the Mamakamau Shop in Uthiru, a suburb of Nairobi, Kenya. Sewage trickles by in an open trench. Across the street,...

Q: Compare the assumptions of physician-centered and
collaborative communication. How is the caregiver’s role different
in each model? How is the patient’s role different?
Answer: Physical-centered communication involves the specialists
taking control of the conversation. They decide on the topics of
discussion and when to end the process. The patient responds to the
issues raised by the caregiver and acts accordingly. On the other
hand, Collaborative communication involves a...
