A ship is sailing due north. At a certain point, the bearing of a lighthouse 5.4 km away is N 39.8 degrees E. Later on, the captain notices that the bearing of the lighthouse has become S 32.3 degrees E. How far did the ship travel between the two observations of the lighthouse?

A boat is sailing due north when its radar system detects a lighthouse 82 miles away at a bearing of 39°. Sailing on the same course, the boat's radar system detects the same lighthouse 53.2 miles at a bearing of 76°. (Note: Bearing angles are measured from due north.) a. How many miles did the boat travel between the two measurements? Round to the nearest tenth. b. The boat travels at a constant rate of 8 miles per hour since...

A hiker travels 2 km due east of his starting point. Then he travels 1 km northwest. Finally, he travels 3 km due north. How far is the hiker from his starting point after the 3 displacements and in what direction? Draw the three displacement vectors to scale and add them graphically Find the magnitude and direction of A, B and A + B for A = -4i – 7j and B = 3i – 2j . Describe the following...

The discovery of pulsars –rotating neutron stars that generate regular pulses of radiation at their spin rate- was fortuitous. A group of astrophysicists from Cambridge University lead by Anthony Hewish was looking for quasars (these are extremely bright, compact and remote objects that emit up to a thousand times as much light as our entire galaxy). For that purpose the research group designed a radio-telescope that was built on the flat fields surrounding Cambridge in central England. This telescope did...
