A pilot wishes to fly her airplane to an airport 700 km away, in a direction of [S 30° W]. The velocity of the wind is 95 km/h from the east. If the pilot wants to reach the other airport in a time of 2 hours, (a) Find the magnitude of the air velocity of the airplane. Include a vector diagram in your solution.

A light plane attains an airspeed of 500 km/h.The pilot sets out for a destination 800 km due north but discovers that the plane must be headed 20.0° east of due north to fly there directly. The plane arrives in 2.00 h.What were the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the wind velocity?
A catapult launches a rocket at an angle of 53.0 above the horizontal with an initial speed of 100 m/s. The rocket engine immediately starts a burn, and for 3.00 s the rocket moves along its initial line of motion with an acceleration of 30.0 m/s2. Then its engine fails, and the rocket proceeds to move in free fall. Find (a) the maximum altitude reached by the rocket, (b) its total time of flight, and (c) its horizontal range.
A diver explores a shallow reef off the coast of Belize. She initially swims 90.0 m north, makes a turn to the east and continues for 200.0 m, then follows a big grouper for 80.0 m in the direction 30 north of east. In the meantime, a local current displaces her by 150.0 m south. Assuming the current is no longer present, in what direction and how far should she now swim to come back to the point where she started?
