Land west of the San Andreas fault in southern California is moving at an average velocity of about 6 cm/y northwest relative to land east of the fault. Los Angeles is west of the fault and may thus someday be at the same latitude as San Francisco, which is east of the fault. How far in the future will this occur if the displacement to be made is 590 km northwest, assuming the motion remains constant?

(d) What is the velocity of the end of the train as it leaves?
1) A man flies a small airplane from Fargo to Bismarck, North Dakota—a distance of 180 mi. Because he is flying into a head wind, the trip takes him 2 h. On the way back, the wind is still blowing at the same speed, so the return trip takes only 1 h 15 min. What is his speed in still air, and how fast is the wind blowing? a. what is the speed (mph) in still air? b. wind speed (mph)? 2)A boat on a river travels downstream between two points, 60 mi apart, in 1 h. The return trip against the current takes 2 1/2 hours. a. What is the boat's speed (in still water)? b. How fast does the current river flow?
