    Vector calculus and flight path

    I still don't understand. Are we suppose to have a new vector? And what would the magnitude be? Then I have to find the resultant from the town to the final destination?

    Vector calculus and flight path

    A pilot flies with a heading of 160 degrees and an airspeed of 250km/h. a)how long should it take the pilot to fly to a town that is 1200km away on the heading he has chosen b) there is a steady wind of 30km/h from the drection 030 degrees. Calculate the ground velocity c) How far, and...

    Help with applications of vector addition

    yupp. i had to divide 97.18 by 2 = 48.59 then I find hte angle since its a right angle triangle now. 90-48.59 = 41.41 then i know that the tension has to balance so tsin41.41 + tsin41.41 = 98 2tsin41.41 = 98 t = 98 / (2sin41.41) and i got the answer :) thanks for making me catch my mistake lol

    Help with applications of vector addition

    I got 97 degrees, but it's not right. My friend told me that it is 41.41 degrees. i did cosx = (2^2+2^2-3^2)/(2*2*2) that I used the cos-1 to find the degree

    Help with applications of vector addition

    I can't seem to draw this diagram. A sign weighing 98N is suspended from the middle of a 4m long chain. The ends of the chain are attached to a ceiling at points 3m apart. Okay so i drew a diagram with a horizontal that is 3m and the chain hanging from each side is 2m long and the object is...
