In an experiment, a shearwater (a seabird) was taken from its nest, flown 5150 km away, and released. The bird found its way back to its nest 13.5 days after release. If we place the origin at the nest and extend the +x-axis to the release point, what was the bird鈥檚 average velocity in (a) for the return flight and (b) for the whole episode, from leaving the nest to returning?
Air traffic controllers give instructions called 鈥渧ectors鈥 to tell airline pilots in which direction they are to fly. If these are the only instructions given, is the name 鈥渧ector鈥 used correctly? Why or why not?
Question: According to the label on a bottle of salad dressing, the volume of the contents is 0.473 liter (L). Using only the conversions 1 L = 1000 cm3 and 1 in. = 2.54 cm, express this volume in cubic inches.
If andare nonzero vectors, is it possible for both andto bezero? Explain.
