On the map, let the +x-axis point east and the +y-axis north. An airplane flies at 880 km/h northwestward direction (i.e., midway between north and west). Can you help me visualize the components of the first velocity, and when the plane flies due south at the same velocity? I am afraid I can properly visualize or understand in simple terms what is asked. My point can you help to understand the right angle theorem to the angle.

Once upon a time,on a piece of paper Alice drew a vector 20cm long at 37 degree north of east. Next, Alice drew a vector 8.5cm long at 45 degree north of west, with the tail of this vector at the head of the previous vector. Finally, Alice drew a vector with a tail at the tail of her first vector and a head at the head of her second vector. I) how long is Alice's third vector? ii) What is the direction of Alice's third vector?
Suppose you first walk 12.5 m in a direction 20° west of north and then 25.5 m in a direction 40° south of west as shown in the figure. What is the component of your displacement in the y-direction, in meters? What is the angle of a line connecting your starting position to your final position, measured South of West, in degrees?
Imagine that the y-axis points north and the x-axis points east. (a) If you travel a distance r= 22km in a straight line from the origin in a direction 35 degrees south of west, what is your position in Cartesian (x,y) coordinates? (b) If you travel 6 miles due south from the origin and then turn west and travel 2 miles, how far from the origin and in what direction is your final position?
Each square on the diagram represents a 20-meter x 20-meter area. If a person walks from H to E to C to G , then what is the distance walked in meters? If a person walks from H to E to C to G , then what is the magnitude of the displacement in meters? If a person walks from H to E to C to G , then what is the direction of the displacement's degree?
The world's largest stuffed animal is a 420-meter-long snake built by Norwegian children. Assume the snake is laid out in a park, as shown in the figure below, forming two straight sides of a 115° angle, one side being 340m long. Olaf and Inge compete in a race they devise. Inge runs directly from the snake's tail to its head, while Olaf starts from the same place but runs along the snake. How much faster does Inge reach the head of the snake than Olaf if both children run steadily at 15.0km/h?
On the map, let the +x-axis point east and the +y-axis north. An airplane flies at 880 km/h northwestward direction (i.e., midway between north and west). Can you help me visualize the components of the first velocity, and when the plane flies due south at the same velocity. I understand the answer will be -622.25 for the run, meaning 880*cos(45) for x -axis; the y axis north is 880*sin(45) resulting in 622.5 Please help me visualize the first and second velocity when the plane flies due south at the same velocity? Help me to visualize where one of the velocities due south is zero, and the other is whatever it is. I am afraid I can properly visualize or understand in simple terms what is asked. My point can you help to understand the right angle theorem to the angle.
Please help by answering this question and explain too (easy to understand way) I think it is either C or D, but I'm not sure which one is the correct one. Please clarify (explain).
A place kicker kicks a football at an angle of 53 degrees above the horizon. If the ball moved away 66 m diagonally, what is the maximum height reached by the ball and how far away is the ball horizontally from the kicker? Draw the trajectory or pattern travelled by the ball.
Hi! Please indicate the given, diagram, FBD, and the solution with no shortcuts, Thanks! 6) Four men are competing in an air-racing event using their brand-new aerobatic planes. They took off a thousandfeet above the sea level. Five minutes after the race started, man A is located at (−3î− ĵ− 2k̂) ft, man B at (8î− 5ĵ−4k̂) ft, man C at (−6î− 4ĵ+ 7k̂) ft, and finally man D at (4î− 2ĵ+ 7k̂) ft.a) Express the axes components of A⃗ − B⃗ + C⃗ − D⃗ in terms of unit vectors.b) Calculate letter a’s magnitude.
The question is in the picture. Also, I also learned that the answer for (a) should be negative, and the other should be positive. Can you help explain that? Is it because they signify the "direction" in "magnitude and direction"? Thank you very much!
What is the east-west component of the plane's velocity relative to the Earth? (Define the positive direction to be east.)
An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 182 ft, then climbs 117 ft at an angle of 32.0° above the horizontal. It then moves 117 ft at an angle of 48.0° below the horizontal. If we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (Give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.) Magnitude = ? Direction = 356.5 degrees counterclockwise from the + x-axis
