Question

A plane is flying east at 135 m/s. The wind accelerates it at 2.18 m/s squared directly north east. After 18.0s, what is the displacement (magnitude and direction) of the plane?

Answer 2

northeast is a 45 degree angle with a variable velocity of 2.18(v) meters/sec

Answer 3

hmm, i can determine the total displacement in the direction of the wind by integrating from 0 to 18

Answer 4

or simply 1.09 * 18^2 = 353.16 in the wind direction

Answer 5

This is the direction?

Answer 6

yes, the total displacement in the direction of the wind is 353.16 in 18 seconds

the total displacement of the forward motion is 135*18 = 2430

Answer 7

What about magnitude?
