Find the component form of the vector that represents the velocity of an airplane descending at a speed of 150 mph at an angle of 30o below the westward horizontal. 210o 30o 150 mph
An airplane is traveling at a speed of 600 mph with a bearing of N35oW at a fixed altitude and no wind. As the plane crosses the Mississippi river, it encounters a wind blowing with a velocity of 60 mph in the direction of N40oE. What is the resultant speed and direction of the plane? 60 mph 125o 35o result 40o 50o 600 mph 60 mph 600 mph wind result plane
125o 35o result 40o 50o 600 mph 60 mph 600 mph wind result plane

A mover exerts a force of 55 pounds in a horizontal direction on a crate to move it across the floor for a distance of 20 feet. Find the work done on the crate. 55 lbs 20 ft.
A mover exerts a force of 55 pounds at an angle of 45o below the horizontal on a crate to move it across the floor for a distance of 20 feet. Find the work done on the crate. 45o 55 lbs 20 ft.
A sled is to be pulled by a rope at a 37o angle above the horizontal with a force of 63 lbs.. Find the amount of work done to move the sled 15 feet. 63 lbs 37o 15 ft.
A mover exerts a horizontal force of 35 pounds on a crate as it is pushed up the ramp that is 40 feet long and inclined at an angle of 13oabove the horizontal. Find the work done on the crate. 40 ft. 35 lbs 13o
A mover exerts a force of 35 pounds parallel to the ramp on a crate as it is pushed up the ramp that is 40 feet long and inclined at an angle of 13oabove the horizontal. Find the work done on the crate. 35 lbs 13o Note: The force is in the same direction of the movement. Therefore, all the force is moving the crate.
