As it passes over Grand Bahama Island, the eye of a hurricane is moving in a direction 63.0° north of west with a speed of 40.2 km/h. (Let i represent
east and j represent north.)
(a) What is the unit-vector expression for the velocity of the hurricane?
km/h i+
km/hi
It maintains this velocity for 3.50 h, at which time the course of the hurricane suddenly shifts due north, and its speed slows to a constant 25.2 km/h.
This new velocity is maintained for 1.50 h.
(b) What is the unit-vector expression for the new velocity of the hurricane?
km/h j
km/h i+
(c) What is the unit-vector expression for the displacement of the hurricane during the first 3.50 h?
km i+
km j
(d) What is the unit-vector expression for the displacement of the hurricane during the latter 1.50 h?
km i+
km j
(e) How far from Grand Bahama is the eye 5.00 h after it passes over the island?
km
