A small boat sailed straight north out of a harbor in strong east wind (blowing from west to east). After sailing for 120 minutes, it ended up hitting a buoy 60^\circ60 ∘ to the north-east of the harbor. If the straight-line distance between the buoy and the harbor is 3 km, what is the speed of the east wind?

3-12. write each answer with a reasonable number of figures. find the absolute uncertainty and percent relative uncertainty for each answer. (a) [12.41 (±0.09) + 4.16 (±0.01)] x 7.068 2 (±0.000 4) =? (b) [3.26 (±0.10) x 8.47 (±0.05)] - 0.18 (±0.06) =? (c) 6.843 (±0.008) x 104 + [2.09 (±0.04)- 1.63 (±0.01)] =?

Aprojectile is thrown upward so that its distance above the ground after t seconds is given by the function h(t) = -16t2 + 704t. after how many seconds does the projectile take to reach its maximum height?

Suppose that 3% of all athletes are using the endurance-enhancing hormone epo (you should be able to simply compute the percentage of all athletes that are not using epo). for our purposes, a “positive” test result is one that indicates presence of epo in an athlete’s bloodstream. the probability of a positive result, given the presence of epo is .99. the probability of a negative result, when epo is not present, is .90. what is the probability that a randomly selected athlete tests positive for epo? 0.0297
