A wildlife researcher is tracking a flock of geese. The geese fly 3.0 km due west, then turn toward the north by 35 degrees and fly another 3.5 km.
1. How far west are they of their initial position?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
2. What is the magnitude of their displacement?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

A cyclist rides 3.0 km due west, then 17.0 km 15° west of north. From this point she rides 9.0 km due east. What is the final displacement from where the cyclist started (in km)? (Express your answer in vector form. Assume the +x-axis is to the east, and the +y-axis is to the north.)
Constants Part A An airplane pilot wishes to fly due west. A wind of 84.0 km/h is blowing toward the south ' the airspood of the plane Ots speed in sti. air) is 400.0 km/h . in which direction should the pilot head?

The pilot of an aircraft wishes to fly due west in a 54-km/h wind blowing toward the south. If the speed of the aircraft relative to the air is 177 km/h, (a) in what direction (degrees north of west) should the aircraft head, and (b) what will be its speed (km/h) relative to the ground? Caution: The speed relative to the air is not the same as the speed relative to the ground. The pilot wishes to fly due west...
An airplane pilot wishes to fly due west. A wind of 72.0 km/hkm/h is blowing toward the south. Part A If the airspeed of the plane (its speed in still air) is 335.0 km/hkm/h, in which direction should the pilot head? Express your answer in degrees. Part B What is the speed of the plane over the ground? Express your answer in kilometers per hour.
the question is asking for west of south with the value abd correct units. I can’t figure this out. The answer 6.77 degrees is wrong. An airplane is heading due south at a speed of 636 km/h. A wind begins blowing from the southwest at a speed of 75 km/h (average). Part A In what direction should the pilot aim the plane so that it will fly due south? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate...
A bird can fly 27 km/h . Part A How long does it take to fly 2.8 km ? Express your answer using two significant figures.
an airplane pilot wishes to fly due south. A wind of 25 km/h is blowing toward the west. If the flying speed of the plane is 300.0 km/h (its speed in still air), in what direction should the pilot head? answer is 85 degrees South of East using inverse cosine, but I'm not sure how it was done. I'm having a hard time making a diagram/visualizing so please include diagrams and your reasoning behind the answer.
Plug And Chug 5.23 Resultant of two vectors at right angles to each other: R=X? +Y? Part A Calculate the resultant of the pair of velocities 80 km/h north and 75 km/h west. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. V = 110 h Previous Answers Correct Part B Calculate the resultant it both of the velocities are directed north. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. HA ? km...
A 29-g rifle bullet traveling 240 m/s embeds itself in a 3.0-kg pendulum hanging on a 2.9-m-long string, which makes the pendulum swing upward in an arc. (Figure 1) Determine the vertical component of the pendulum's maximum displacement. 1. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. 2. Determine the horizontal component of the pendulum's maximum displacement. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
2. The total distance from Detroit to Hawaii is 7,211 km. The displacement vector from Detroit to Hawaii has a south component of 2333 km. (Important: Assume a flat Earth.) A.) (4 Points) How many kilometers west of Detroit is Hawaii? (That is, what is the west component of the displacement vector?) Express your answer to 4 significant figures. C.) (2 Points) Write the displacement vector in î and j notation. D.) (4 Points) How many degrees south of due...
