A flock of ducks is trying to migrate south for the winter, but they keep being blown off course by a wind blowing from the west at 12 m/s. A wise elder duck finally realizes that the solution is to fly at an angle to the wind. If the ducks can fly at 16 m/s relative to the air, in what direction should they head in order to move directly south?
A squirrel is launched due west from a height of 10 meters with an initial velocity of 80 meters per second atan angle of 60 degrees above horizontal. A strong wind blowing directly out of the north causes the squirrel toaccelerate south at a rate of 2 m/s^2. All of this takes place in my backyard where acceleration due to gravity is 7 m/s2 (a) With the positive y–axis oriented north, the positive x–axis oriented east, and the positive z–axis up into the sky, findthe vector equation for the path of the squirrel. (b) Find the time when the squirrel is at her maximum height.
