Chapter 1, Problem 1.33SP
Two planes, starting from airport X, fly for 2 hr, one at 800 km/hr and the other at 1050 km/hr. The slower plane flies in a direction of 60° east of north and the faster plane flies in a direction of 10° south of east, with reference to X. How far apart are the planes at the end of the 2 hr period?

One morning, Connie walks from her house to go to a store that is 500 ft, S 40o W from her house. She starts walking 120 ft, SW; then continues walking 100 ft, 10o S of E; then sees a friend who is 700 ft, 30o N of E from where she is.
What is her friend’s location, (magnitude and direction) relative to her house? (Answer: 667.54 ft, 21.79o N of E)

- Use the formula x=1/32v² sin 2 theta to explain why the projection angle that maximizes the distance a projectile traves is theta=45° when ho=0. Find the horizontal distance traveled by a football kicked from ground level (ho=0) at speed v and angle theta.arrow_forwardSomewhere DEEP BELOW THE EARTH's surface, at an UNKNOWN displacement from the Earth's center, a particle of mass m is dangled from a long string, length L; the particle oscillates along a small arc according to the differential equation d^2x/dt^2=-(pi^2/36)x. Here x refers to an angular displacement measured from the vertical and t refers to time. The particle's mass is given by m=3kg. The length of the string is given by L=5 meters. Whenever the particle arrives at a location of x=(pi/12) radians from the vertical, the particle has no instantaneous speed. On both sides of the vertical, that is, x=(pi/12) radians is repeatedly observed to be a 'turning point' for the particle's periodic motion. 1.
