Concept explainers

Relative Velocity

It is a measurement of an object with regards to the other object which is moving or stable or stationary. For example, if we are traveling in a bus and the bus is moving at speed of 50km/hr, then our speed is according to the nearby passenger on the bus is zero. According to them, we are not moving. But if one person standing on the ground or road observes us from outside of the bus, according to him we are moving at a speed of 50km/hr and the bus is also moving at a speed of 50km/hr. Now, the motion is recognized by the observer, it depends on a frame of reference or observer. This is motion called relative motion.

Your garage mechanic is flying from St. Hubert to Québec City in a Cessna. His Cessna flies at an air-speed of 150.0 km/hr. To make it easy he decides to fly along Route 30 from St. Hubert, which is straight North out of St Hubert. (In the old days the CPR railway across Western Canada was referred to by bush-pilots as the "Iron Compass". As a non-counting trivia question, why?). However, to follow along highway 30 he finds that he must point his plane in the direction 3 degrees West of North. By following the highway markers he finds that he is actually travelling North at 149.0 km/hr. Being a clever person (he recently got an "A" in physics 101 but decided to go into garage mechanics instead of medicine) he quickly calculates the wind-speed to be (answer below in kilometers per hour). What is the direction of the wind? Give the direction in degrees relative to North; positive for East, negative for West

Our garage mechanic is flying from St. Hubert to Québec City in a Cessna. His Cessna flies at an air-speed of 170.0 km/hr. To make it easy he decides to fly along Route 30 from St. Hubert, which is straight North out of St Hubert. (In the old days the CPR railway across Western Canada was referred to by bush-pilots as the "Iron Compass". As a non-counting trivia question, why?). However, to follow along highway 30 he finds that he must point his plane in the direction 4.5 degrees West of North. By following the highway markers he finds that he is actually travelling North at 190.0 km/hr. Being a clever person (he recently got an "A" in physics 101 but decided to go into garage mechanics instead of medicine) he quickly calculates the wind-speed to be (answer below in kilometers per hour). a) What is the wind speed he calculated? b) What is the direction of the wind?

A car comes to a bridge during a storm and finds the bridge washed out. The driver must get to the other side, so he decides to try leaping it with his car. The side the car is on is 20.3 mm above the river, whereas the opposite side is a mere 1.6 mm above the river. The river itself is a raging torrent 57.0 mm wide.
