An oil refinery is located 1 km north of the north bank of a straight river that is 2 km wide. A pipeline is to be constructed from the refinery to storage tanks located on the south bank of the river 9 km east of the refinery. The cost of laying pipe is $200,000 per km over land to a point P on the north bank and $400,000 per km under the river to the tanks. To minimize the cost...

Montréal is 510 km from Toronto, 12 degrees north of east. At an altitude of 9,000 meters, the windspeed is 80 km/h out of the north. For the entire 510 km, the aircraft flies at 9,000 meters at an airspeed of 300 knots. Draw a triangle whose sides represent the velocity vectors that correspond to the groundspeed, airspeed, and windspeed. Determine: (a) the aircraft heading (direction in which the nose of the aircraft points), in degrees from north. (b) the...

A map suggests that Atlanta is 730 miles in a direction 5.00° north of east from Dallas. The same map shows that Chicago is 560 miles in a direction 21.0° west of north from Atlanta. The figure below shows the location of these three cities. Modeling the Earth as flat, use this information to find the displacement from Dallas to Chicago. magnitude mi direction ° north of east of Dallas
