A bee is flying down South with a velocity of 10 m/s, the wind is blowing toward the bee at a constant velocity of 3 m/s in the direction of the North-West. How far does the bee travel after 10 sec and at what direction? At what velocity should the bee fly in order to keep itself moving straight toward the South at 5 m/s?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Summary :

Just use vector law of velocity addition to find the total velocity vector. Then integrate the expression of velocity vector to find the position of bee after 10 seconds. And similarly in second part assume velocity of v with which bee should fly. Then solve the equation.

An airplane is flying at a constant horizontal velocity of 184.5 m/s and drops a rocket. The rocket falls for 10.24 s without air resistance and under the influence of gravity only, and then fires its thrusters. From the moment the thrusters are one, the rocket has a net acceleration of 5.481 direscted 30.21 degrees above the horizontal. How far apart are the plane and the rocket when the rocket passes back through the cruising altitude of the plane?
