The eye of a hurricane passes over Grand Bahama Island in a direction 60.0 north of west with a speed of 41.0 km/h. Three hours later the course of the hurricane suddenly shifts due north, and its speed slows to 25.0 km/h. How far from Grand Bahama is the hurricane 4.50 h after it passes over the island?
You are working as an assistant to an air-traffic controller at the local airport, from which small airplanes take off and land. Your job is to make sure that airplanes are not closer to each other than a minimum safe separation distance of 2.00 km. You observe two small aircraft on your radar screen, out over the ocean surface. The first is at altitude 800 m above the surface, horizontal distance 19.2 km. and 25.0 south of west. The second aircraft is at altitude 1 100 m, horizontal distance 17.6 km, and 20.0 south of west. Your supervisor is concerned that the two aircraft are too close together and asks for a separatism distance for the two airplanes. (Place the x axis west, the y axis south, and the z axis vertical.)
A roller coaster moves 200 ft horizontally and then rises 135 ft at an angle of 30.0 above the horizontal. Next, it travels 135 ft at an angle of 40.0 below the horizontal. Use graphical techniques to find the roller coaster's displacement from its starting point to the end of this movement.
An owl is carrying a mouse to the chicks in its nest. Its position at that time is 4.00 m west and 12.0 m above the center of the 30.0 cm diameter nest. The owl is flying east at 3.50 m/s at an angle 30.0° below the horizontal when it accidentally drops the mouse. Is the owl lucky enough to have the mouse hit the nest? To answer this question, calculate the horizontal position of the mouse when it has fallen 12.0 m.
An air-traffic controller observes two aircraft on his radar screen. The first is at altitude 800 m, horizontal distance 19.2 km, and 25.0 south of west. The second aircraft is at altitude 1 100 m, horizontal distance 17.6 km, and 20.0 south of west. What is the distance between the two aircraft? (Place the x axis west, the y axis south, and the z axis vertical.)
A roller-coaster car moves 200 ft horizontally and then rises 135 ft at an angle of 30.0 above the horizontal. It next travels 135 ft at an angle of 40.0 downward. What is its displacement from its starting point? Use graphical techniques.
Suppose a pilot flies 40.0 km in a direction 60° north of east and then flies 30.0 km in a direction 150° north of east as shown in Figure 3.63. Find her total distance R from the starting point and the direction of the straight-line path to the final position. Discuss qualitatively how this flight would be altered by a wind from the north and how the effect of the wind would depend on both wind speed and the speed of the plane relative to the air mass.
A map suggests that Atlanta is 730 miles in a direction 5.00c north of east from Dallas. The same map shows that Chicago is 560 miles in a direction 21.0 west of north from Atlanta.

A ferry transports tourists between three islands. It sails from the first island to the second island, 4.76 km away, in a direction 37.0 north of east. It then sails from the second island to the third island in a direction 69.0 west of north. Finally it returns to the first island, sailing in a direction 28.0 east of south. Calculate the distance between (a) the second and third islands and (b) the first and third islands.
A Coast Guard cutter detects an unidentified ship at a distance of 20.0 km in the direction 15.0 east of north. The ship is traveling at 26.0 km/h on a course at 40.0 east of north. The Coast Guard wishes to send a speedboat to intercept and investigate the vessel. If the speedboat travels at 50.0 km/h, in what direction should it head? Express the direction as a compass bearing with respect to due north.
A ship sailing in the Gulf Stream is heading 25.0° west of north at a speed of 4.00 m/s relative to the water. Its velocity relative to the Earth is 4.80 m/s 5.00° west of north.
