The jet transport B is flying north with a velocity VB = 480 km/h when a smaller aircraft A passes underneath the transport headed in the 60° direction shown. To passengers in B, however, A appears to be flying sideways and moving east. Determine the magnitudes of the actual velocity of A and the velocity which A appears to have relative to B. Part 1 UB N 60° 0 The relative velocity is defined so that VA/B = VA-VB. A graphical version of this equation is shown. What is the angle 8? V A/B E 480 km/h

He turns around and rows downistream (with the flow of the river) to his starting pointing, taking only 30 minutes to return. Douglas' speed upstream is 3 kilometres per hour less than his speed downstream. What is his speed when rowing the boat upstream? O a. 5 km/hr Ob. 9 km/hr Oc 6 km/hr Od. 7 km/hr O e 8 km/hr
Calvin is standing on the roof of a 6.50 m tall house. His tiger Hobbes is on the ground, some distance away from the house. Calvin is throwing water balloons at Hobbes: Calvin is throwing the water balloons with speed VO at an angle of 0 below the horizontal. On his first try, Calvin hits Hobbes with the water balloon! Hobbes is 3.02 m horizontally from the base of the building and it takes 1.04 s for the balloon to hit him. Coordinate system: positive x points to the right and positive y points up.
A swan is flying at a speed of 17.5 m/s. There is a wind blowingfrom the East at 12.5 m/s. a) If the swan pointed due South, what would be the magnitude and direction of itsvelocity relative to the ground. b) If the swan wishes to travel due South, what would be the magnitude anddirection of its velocity relative to the ground. c) If the swan travels due South as in part b, what will be its displacement after 8.5hours?
Car A is traveling on the circular road at the constant speed of vå = 60 km/h. At the instant shown, the speed of car B on the overpass is VB = 80 km/h, and it is decreasing at the rate of 1.6 m/s².

Trachecktory. Two cannonballs, aptly named a and ß, were launched on level ground. a was launched with a velocity of 18.0 [m/s] at 36° with respect to the ground while ß was launched with a velocity of 17.6 [m/s] at 48° with respect to the ground. What can you say about a and ß's range and time of flight? O a and ß do not have the same range; a has a larger time of flight. O a and ß have the same range; a has a larger time of flight. a and ß have the same range; ß has a larger time of flight. a and ß do not have the same range; ß has a larger time of flight.
