Question

At a particular location, a hurricane's eye is moving with speed 40.6 km/h and in the direction 25.0° north of west. The hurricane keeps going at this velocity for 3.50 h, then changes direction, and heads due north. When its direction changes, it slows down to 26.2 km/h. It travels at this new velocity for 1.50 h. (Let î represent east and ĵ represent north.)

(Let i represent east and j represent north.) (a) Write the hurricane's initial velocity (in km/h) in unit-vector notation. km/h (b) Write the hurricane's final velocity (in km/h) in unit-vector notation. km/h ) Write the hurricane's displacement (in km) during the first 3.50 hours. (Express your answer in vector form.) km first 3.50 hours (d) Write the hurricane's displacement (in km) during the last 1.50 hours. (Express your answer in vector form.) km last 1.50 hours e) How far (in km) from its initial position is the eye after 5.00 hours have passed? km Need Help? Read It Submit Answer Save Progress
