Assignment Name: A: for each of the following determine the velocity of the object relative to the ground. 1. a person is walking at 1.2 m/s towards the back of a train travelling at 19.0 m/s [n]. 2. a bird is flying through the air at 5.65 m/s [e] where the wind is blowing at 4.95 m/s [e]. 3. a person is walking on a moving sidewalk at 1.80 m/s in the same direction as the sidewalk, which is moving at 3.00 m/s. B: 1. a hound walks at a speed of 2.00 m/s along the deck toward the front of a boat, which is travelling at 8.00 m/s with respect to the water. a) What is the velocity of the hound relative to the water? b) What would be the velocity of the hound if the dog were walking toward the back of the boat? 2. an air canada plane is travelling at 1000.0 km/h in a direction 40.0 east of north. a) find the components of the velocity vector by finding the component in the northerly direction and the easterly direction. b) how far to the north and how far to the east would the plane travel in 4.00 h? 3. a captain walks 4.00 km/h directly across a cruise ship whose speed relative to earth is 12.0 km/h. What is the speed of the captain with respect to earth? 4. a person paddling a canoe is able to make the canoe and himself travel at a speed of 1.50 m/s in still water. The paddler heads the canoe directly across a 3.00 km wide river. The current of the river flows at 0.900 m/s downstream. a) What is the velocity of the canoe as observed from the shore? b) how long does it take the canoe to cross the river? c) how far downstream will the canoe be upon reaching the other side of the river? 5. an airplane flies with an air speed of 225 km/h heading due west. at the altitude at which the plane is flying, the wind is blowing at 105 km/h heading due south. a) What is the velocity of the plane as observed by someone standing on the ground? b) how far off course would the plane, while it is heading due west, be blown by the wind during 1.50 h of flying? c) What heading must a plane take in order to reach its destination, which is due west of the starting point
