When in orbit, a satellite such as the space shuttle is
a. simply a projectile.
b. in non-accelerated motion.
c. free from earth's gravity.

The boat's velocity relative to the riverbank can be resolved into two components. the component going north is 2.7 m/s and the component going west is 1.2 m/s.we add these two vectors and then find the magnitude of the resultant to get the speed.the magnitude of the resultant vector from adding can be obtained by the pythagorean theorem.    to two significant figures, the boat's speed relative to the riverbank is 3.0 m/s.

Blue light reflected from the ball enters human eyes.
