- Meridian ground speed
The plane flies south at an average speed of 190 km/h, and the wind blows from west to east at a speed of 20 m/s. How fast and in what direction (relative to the meridian) will the plane move relative to the ground? - Landscape 82339
Soňa is sitting on the train, looking out the window, and what she doesn't see is that the landscape runs backward at a constant speed of 160 km/h, and on the side track, the train is seemingly backing up at a constant speed of 40 km/h. Sonia stops and wo - Designated 71874
The patrol had started at a designated marching angle (an azimuth) of 13°. After 9 km, the azimuth's angle changed to 62°. The patrol went 10 km in this direction. Find the distance from where the patrol started. - Northeast 66694
Katka and Honza rode out on their scooters at the same time. Katka drove at a speed of 4.5 km/30 min, and Honza drove at a speed of 4 km/20 min. a) how many m did they travel in 2 minutes if they went in the opposite direction? b) how many miles did they - The bomber
An aircraft flying at an altitude of 1260 m. From what distance in front of the target must a parachute load be dropped from an airplane? The load slopes at a speed of 5.6 m/s and moves in the direction of movement at 12 m/s. What is the direct distance o - Two-dimensional 36453
Two of its inhabitants stand at one point in the land of two-dimensional beings. Suddenly, they both start running at the same moment. Resident A runs north at 5m/s, and resident B runs east at 12m/s. Calculate how fast they are moving away from each othe - Motorcyclist 26141
The passenger car left at 7:00 and was heading east at a speed of 60km/h. A motorcyclist left the same place and headed north at 40 km/h. What will be their air distance at ten o'clock? - Angled cyclist turn
The cyclist passes through a curve with a radius of 20 m at 25 km/h. How much angle does it have to bend from the vertical inward to the turn? - Overtaking
On the direct road, the passenger car overtakes the slower bus by starting to overtake 20 meters from the bus and after passing it ahead of it again 20 meters away. The car overtakes at a steady speed of 72 km/h. The bus goes at a steady speed of 54 km/h. - Perpendicular 7005
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 - Graphically 7004
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 - Downstream 7002
A rowboat sailing down a river covers a distance of 120 m downstream in 12 s and upstream in 24 s. Find the magnitude of the ship's velocity relative to the water and the current in the river. Both speeds are constant. - 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) - Two people
Two straight lines cross at right angles. Two people start simultaneously at the point of intersection. John walks at the rate of 4 kph on one road, and Jenelyn walks at the rate of 8 kph on the other road. How long will it take for them to be 20√5 km apa - Crossroads
A passenger car and an ambulance come to the rectangular crossroad, and the ambulance leaves. Passenger car at speed 39 km/h and ambulance at 41 km/h. Calculate the relative speed of the ambulance moving to the car.
