- The swimmer
The swimmer swims at a constant speed of 0.85 m/s relative to water flow. The current speed in the river is 0.40 m/s, and the river width is 90 m. a) What is the resulting speed of the swimmer for the tree on the riverbank when the swimmer's motion is per
- Isosceles triangle 9
There is an isosceles triangle ABC where AB= AC. The perimeter is 64cm, and the altitude is 24cm. Find the area of the isosceles triangle.
- Angles
In the triangle ABC, the ratio of angles is α:β = 4:5. The angle γ is 36°. How big are the angles α and β?
- Ethernet cable
Charles and George are passionate gamers and live in houses opposite each other across the street so they can see each other through the windows. They decided their computers would connect to the telephone cable to play games together. Charles lives on th
- Triangles - combinations
How many different triangles with sides in whole centimeters have a perimeter of 12 cm?
- Gimli Glider
Aircraft Boeing 767 lose both engines at 35000 feet. The plane captain maintains optimum gliding conditions. Every minute, lose 2100 feet and maintain constant speed 201 knots. Calculate how long it takes for a plane to hit the ground from engine failure.
- MIT 1869
You know the length of parts 9 and 16 of the hypotenuse, at which a right triangle's hypotenuse is divided by a height. The task is to find the lengths of the sides of the triangle and the length of line x. This assignment was part of the Massachusetts In
- Intersection 6653
Two straight paths cross, making an angle alpha = 53 degrees 30'. There are two pillars on one of them, one at the intersection, the other at a distance of 500m from it. How far does one have to go from the intersection along the other road to see both po
- Perpendicular direction
A speedboat moves relative to the water at a constant speed of 13 m/s. The speed of the water current in the river is 5 m/s a) At what angle concerning the water current must the boat sail to keep moving perpendicular to the banks of the river? b) At what
- Distances
A boy is rowing a boat at a speed of 7.2 km/h. He directed the boat perpendicularly to the opposite bank, which is 600 m away. The river carries the boat at a speed of 4.0 km/h. What is the resulting speed of the boat relative to the bank? How far will th
- Lighthouse
The man, 180 cm tall, walks along the seafront directly to the lighthouse. The male shadow caused by the beacon light is initially 5.4 meters long. When the man approaches the lighthouse by 90 meters, its shadow is shorter by 3 meters. How tall is the lig
- Perpendicular 7001
We throw a ball in an express car traveling at a constant speed of 24 m/s, whose initial speed relative to the vehicle is 7 m/s. What is the initial velocity of the ball relative to the surface of the ground if we throw it a) in the direction of travel b)
- Minutes 38331
Two planes took off from Prague at one point. The first is flying north at a speed of 420 km/h, and the second is flying east at a speed of 560 km/h. How far apart will they be as the crow flies in 25 minutes of flight?
- Lighthouse
Marcel (point J) lies in the grass and sees the top of the tent (point T) and, behind it, the top of the lighthouse (P). | TT '| = 1.2m, | PP '| = 36m, | JT '| = 5m. Marcel lies 15 meters away from the sea (M). Calculate the lighthouse distance from the s
- Boat
A force of 240 kg (2400 N) is required to pull a boat up a ramp inclined at 10° with horizontal. How much does the boat weigh?
- Sailboat
The 20 m long sailboat has an 8 m high mast in the middle of the deck. The top of the mast is fixed to the bow and stern with a steel cable. Determine how much cable is needed to secure the mast and what angle the cable will make with the ship's deck.
- Cross road
From the junction of two streets perpendicular to each other, two cyclists (each on another street) walked out. One ran at 18 km/h, and the second at 24 km/h. How are they away from a) 6 minutes, b) 15 minutes?
- Raindrops
The train is moving at a speed of 60 km/h. Raindrops falling vertically in the absence of wind (with uniform movement due to the action of air resistance) leave traces on the windows of the train, deviating from the vertical direction by 30°. How fast are
- Boat in the lake
A boatman walks along the ship's deck at a constant speed of 5 km/h in a direction that forms an angle of 60° with the direction of the ship's speed. The boat moves with respect to the lake's calm surface at a constant speed of 10 km/h. Determine graphica
- Ballistic curve
The soldier fired the ballistic grenade at a 45° angle. The first half ascended, and the second fell. How far and height did it reach if his average speed was 1200 km/h, and what 12 seconds were taken from the shot to impact?
