2D Relative Motion Problem #1

A boat, whose speed in still water is 1.70 m/s, must cross a 260m –wide river and arrive at a point 110m upstream from where it starts. To do so, the pilot must head the boat at a 45 0 upstream angle. What is the speed of the river’s current?. 2D Relative Motion Problem #1.

  3. Problem #2 An airplane whose air speed is 620 km/h is supposed to fly in a straight path 35.00 north of east. But a steady 95 km/h wind is blowing from the north. In what direction should the plane head? 620km/h 95km/h 350

  4. Problem #2 An airplane whose air speed is 620 km/h is supposed to fly in a straight path 35.00 north of east. But a steady 95 km/h wind is blowing from the north. In what direction should the plane head? 35 θ The plane’s heading should be 42.20 north of east.
