A hurricane passes over Miami. The eye of the hurricane travels with a speed of 50km/h in the direction 20◦ west of north. Two hours later the winds shift and the eye of the hurricane has a speed of 40km/h and it travels in the direction 10◦ east of north. After passing over Miami, where is the eye of the hurricane located after three hours relative to Miami?

Canadian geese migrate essentially along a north-south direction for well over a thousand kilometers in some cases, traveling at speeds up to about 100 km/h. One such bird is flying at 100 km/h relative to the air, but there is a 30.0 km/h wind blowing from west to east. PART A : At what angle relative to the north-south direction should this bird head so that it will be traveling directly southward relative to the ground? PART B: How long...

You have a small boat which travels through water at a speed of 6.0 m/s. You take it out on a section of a local river where the water flows from north to south at a speed of 4.0 m/s. (a) First, you head south (i.e. downstream) in your boat. Draw a vector which represents the velocity of the boat relative to the water, and a vector that represents the velocity of the water relative to the shore. Then add...

A ferryboat, whose speed in still water is 4.00 m/s, must cross a river whose current is 3.00 m/s. The river runs from West to East and the boat is pointed North. a) If the boat does not compensate for the flow of the river water, and allows itself to be pushed off course, what would be the new velocity of the boat? In answering this question, draw a vector diagram with the appropriate labels for the vectors, and state...
