A light aircraft is 60km north east from the Airport and it flies north for six hours at a velocity of 96 km/h. \n" ); document.write( "Determine it's [sic] position (displacement) with reference to the Airport in magnitude and direction? \n" ); document.write( "----------------- \n" ); document.write( "It's a triangle. \n" ); document.write( "Side a = 60 km \n" ); document.write( "Side b = 6*96 = 576 km \n" ); document.write( "The angle between a & b is 135 degrees. \n" ); document.write( "------------- \n" ); document.write( "Use the Cosine Law to find side c (the distance). \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "Then use the Law of Sines to find angle C. \n" ); document.write( "Direction = 045 - angle C. \n" ); document.write( "=========================== \n" ); document.write( "PS it's = it is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
