Learning Objectives:
Students will be able to...
Determine the magnitude and direction of a vector.
Add and subtract vectors.
Apply knowledge of vectors to complete problems involving boats with river current and planes with crosswinds.
Calculate relative velocity using given information.
Understand that perpendicular components of motion are independent.
Check Your Understanding
Why is the velocity observed from the boat different from the velocity observed from the water or on the shore?
Does a current or crosswind affect the amount of time it takes to reach land? Why or why not?
