A DC-9 aircraft leaves an airport from a runway whose bearing is N4343degrees°E. After flying for one half 1 2 mile, the pilot requests permission to turn 90degrees° and head toward the southeast. The permission is granted. After the airplane goes 1 mile in this direction, what bearing should the control tower use to locate the aircraft? What is the bearing that the control tower should use to locate the aircraft? ▼ S N nothingdegrees° ▼ E W (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

103.4° or S76.6°E

Explanation:

The direction N43°E is perpendicular to the direction south-east when the plane turn 90° and heads in the south-east direction.

Since the distance 1/2 mile N43°E is perpendicular to the distance 1 mile south-east, we have a right angled triangle.

So, the angle θ between the aircraft's new position and old position is gotten from tanθ = 1 ÷ 1/2 = 2

θ = tan⁻¹(2) = 63.43°

So, the total angle from North to its new position is 40° + 63.43° = 103.43°

Since we need the south-east bearing, the angle from south is 180° - 103.43° = 76.57° ≅ 76.6°

So, our bearing is 103.4° or S76.6°E

when two balls of the different masses are dropped from equal height, they reach the ground at the same time .this is because they experience the same acceleration.

the acceleration is independent of mass.

thus when they are dropped they will always maintain the same velocity and travel the same distance (neglect air resistance of course) at the same time.
