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 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? SHOW ALL WORK SHOW DIRECTION AND MAGNITUDE (DISTANCE AND ANGLE)

Using Java. The distance a vehicle travels can be calculated as follows: Distance = Speed * Time For example, if a train travels 40 miles-per-hour for three hours, the distance traveled is 120 miles. Write a program that asks for the speed of a vehicle (in miles-per-hour) and the number of hours it has traveled. Both values are assumed to be integers. It should use a loop to display the distance a vehicle has traveled for each hour of a...

A 379-kg boat is sailing 11.0° north of east at a speed of 1.80 m/s. 35.0 s later, it is sailing 38.0° north of east at a speed of 4.30 m/s. During this time, three forces act on the boat: a 32.1-N force directed 11.0° north of east (due to an auxiliary engine), a 21.8-N force directed 11.0° south of west (resistance due to the water), and (due to the wind). Find the (a) the magnitude and (b) direction of...

A 362-kg boat is sailing 17.0° north of east at a speed of 1.60 m/s. 40.0 s later, it is sailing 40.0° north of east at a speed of 4.40 m/s. During this time, three forces act on the boat: a 30.5-N force directed 17.0° north of east (due to an auxiliary engine), a 23.8-N force directed 17.0° south of west (resistance due to the water), and (due to the wind). Find the (a) the magnitude and (b) direction of...

Suppose a car experienced a head-on collision in Cartoon world. (in the calculation, round to nearest integer) 1. Before the collision, the mass of the car is 1500kg, and the speed is 36km/hr, and the car is going to the north. What is its momentum? Is its momentum a vector? If it is a vector, indicate it's direction and magnitude. (We can define the north as the positive direction in the following calculation) 2. There is a truck heading south,...
