Problem Statement: Physics for Engineers
Kinematics Problem SolvingA pilot flies in a straight path for 1 hour 45 minutes. She then makes a course correction, heading 30 degrees to the right of her original course, and flies 2 hours 30 minutes in the new direction. If she maintains a constant speed of 340 mi/h, how far is she from her starting position? Give your answer to the nearest mile.
Problem Answer:
She is 1,397 miles far from her starting position.
