A student drove to the university from her home and noted that the odometer on her car increased by 13.0 km. The trip took 16.0 min. (a) What was her average speed? km/h (b) If the straight-line distance from her home to the university is 10.3 km in a direction 25.0Â° south of east, what was her average velocity? km/h (25Â° S of E) (c) She returned home by the same path. The total time to leave home, travel to the university, and return home was 7 h 30 min. What were her average speed and velocity for the entire trip?

A bullet is shot horizontally with an initial speed of 899 m/s at a target 183 m away. How far, vertically has the bullet fallen when it hits the target? Answer in centimeters.
If a rock is thrown with an initial velocity of 5.4 m/s in the y-direction and 8.2 m/s in the x-direction. At what angle was the rock thrown?
In reaching her destination, a backpacker walks with an average velocity of 1.48 m/s, due west. This average velocity results, because she hikes for 6.55 km with an average velocity of 2.75 m/s, due west, turns around, and hikes with an average velocity of 0.513 m/s, due east. How far east did she walk?
The speed of a cyclist along the horizontal road is 16 km/h, 12 km/h upward and 24 km/h downward. Once the cyclist went from the village to the town, and it took 3 hours to get to the town and to go back to the village. How far is the city from the village?
The pilot of an aircraft flies due north relative to the ground in a wind blowing 80 km/h toward the east. If his speed relative to the air is 410 km/h, what is the magnitude of the velocity of his airplane relative to the ground? State the answer to the nearest tenth of the km/h.
A cannon ball was fired at 20m/s. If it was launched at 30 degrees above the horizontal, find (a) the components of the velocity, (b) maximum height, (c) total time of flight, (d) range and (c) the final velocity before it hits the ground.
A jetliner with an airspeed of 1000 km/h sets out on a 1500 km flight due south. To maintain a southward direction, however, the plane must be pointed 15° west of south. If the flight takes 110 min , what is the wind velocity? Answer should be in terms of Vwindx , Vwindy in km/h.
