We now have the tools to solve the problem we introduced in the opening of the section.
An airplane is flying at an airspeed of 200 miles per hour headed on a SE bearing of 140°. A north wind (from north to south) is blowing at 16.2 miles per hour. What are the ground speed and actual bearing of the plane? See
[link] .
The ground speed is represented by
in the diagram, and we need to find the angle
in order to calculate the adjusted bearing, which will be
Notice in
[link] , that angle
must be equal to angle
by the rule of alternating interior angles, so angle
is 140°. We can find
by the Law of Cosines:
The ground speed is approximately 213 miles per hour. Now we can calculate the bearing using the Law of Sines.
Therefore, the plane has a SE bearing of 140°+2.8°=142.8°. The ground speed is 212.7 miles per hour.
The position vector has its initial point at the origin. See
[link] .
If the position vector is the same for two vectors, they are equal. See
[link] .
Vectors are defined by their magnitude and direction. See
[link] .
If two vectors have the same magnitude and direction, they are equal. See
[link] .
Vector addition and subtraction result in a new vector found by adding or subtracting corresponding elements. See
[link] .
Scalar multiplication is multiplying a vector by a constant. Only the magnitude changes; the direction stays the same. See
[link] and
[link] .
Vectors are comprised of two components: the horizontal component along the positive
x -axis, and the vertical component along the positive
y -axis. See
[link] .
The unit vector in the same direction of any nonzero vector is found by dividing the vector by its magnitude.
The magnitude of a vector in the rectangular coordinate system is
See
[link].
In the rectangular coordinate system, unit vectors may be represented in terms of
and
where
represents the horizontal component and
represents the vertical component. Then,
v = a
i + b
j is a scalar multiple of
by real numbers
See
[link] and
[link] .
Adding and subtracting vectors in terms of
i and
j consists of adding or subtracting corresponding coefficients of
i and corresponding coefficients of
j . See
[link] .
A vector
v =
a
i +
b
j is written in terms of magnitude and direction as

The dot product of two vectors is the product of the
terms plus the product of the
terms. See
[link] .
We can use the dot product to find the angle between two vectors.
[link] and
[link] .
Dot products are useful for many types of physics applications. See

is it possible to leave every good at the same level
Joseph
I don't think so. because check it, if the demand for chicken increases, people will no longer consume fish like they used to causing a fall in the demand for fish

is not really possible to let the value of a goods to be same at the same time.....

Suppose the inflation rate is 6%, does it mean that all the goods you purchase will cost
6% more than previous year? Provide with reasoning.
Not necessarily. To measure the inflation rate economists normally use an averaged price index of a basket of certain goods. So if you purchase goods included in the basket, you will notice that you pay 6% more, otherwise not necessarily.
Good day
How do I calculate this question: C= 100+5yd G= 2000 T= 2000 I(planned)=200.
Suppose the actual output is 3000. What is the level of planned expenditures at this level of output?

money as unit of account means what?
Kalombe
A unit of account is something that can be used to value goods and services and make calculations

all of you please speak in English I can't understand you're language

I want to know how can we define macroeconomics in one line
Muhammad
it must be .9 or 0.9
no Mpc is greater than 1
Y=100+.9Y+50
Y-.9Y=150
0.1Y/0.1=150/0.1
Y=1500

Mercy is it clear?😋

hi can someone help me on this question
If a negative shocks shifts the IS curve to the left, what type of policy do you suggest so as to stabilize the level of output?
discuss your answer using appropriate graph.
