Let the angle of the direction of aircraft making with the west be A. (A vector diagram here would be useful)

sin A = (50/205) or, A = arcsin(50/205) = 14.12 degrees The aircraft should fly 14.12 degrees due North-West from West. Or in aviation terms: the aircraft wishes to track West (270 deg. True), he will have 14 deg. drift, so the pilot heads 284 deg. (True). He then corrects this heading by the local Magnetic Variation to give the Magnetic Heading, which he flies using his compass (or, more usually, his Remote Magnetic Indicator).

How should we analyze an oblique impact if the direction of line of impact is not known?

As we know that, in an oblique impact, the direction of impact is always along the line of impact, but not perpendicular to it.. And it's obvious that the line of impact lies in the x axis passing through the center of mass of the objects... So, if we don't know the direction of the line of impact, then we can easily take it along the "x" axis....


What number on a fridge is colder 1 or 5?

5 for us, but this is variable; you fridge should say "coldest" next to one of the numbers, or have a "colder" arrow indicating which direction is colder. In the absence of these, you may put the indicator on either 1 or 5, and in 2 minutes or less, the compressor's behavior should tell you which is which.


How do you make an enemy object shoot in game maker 7?

this is the code I always use:bullet = instance_create(obj_enemyBullet);// create the bullet and store the ID in a variablewith(bullet){//start running code in the bulletparentID = other.id;//set the enemy ID that is the parent to the bullet as a variable in the bulletdirection = (parentID).bulletDirection;//set the direction to a variable stored in the enemyspeed = (parentID).bulletSpeed;//set the direction to a variable stored in the enemy//etc.}obj_enemyBullet is the object name of whatever the the enemy is shootingbulletDirection is a variable in the enemy that contains the direction the bullet should movebulletSpeed is a variable in the enemy that contains the speed the bullet should movejust copy/paste this code into the event that triggers the bullet firing and account for the mentioned variables.

Where is the line of symmety located on a parabola?

The line of symmetry located on a parabola is right down the center. A parabola is a U shape. Depending on the direction of the parabola it either has a x axis of symmetry or y axis of symmetry. You should have two equal sides of the parabola.


What is the sketch for y greater or equal to -3 plus x?

y >= -3 + xThis is the same asy>= x-3Start off by sketching the regular graph of y=x-3 (should look the same as the graph of y=x but shifted down 3 places so that the y intercept is at the point (0,-3)).Now just shade the half of the graph where y is greater (so shade in the positive direction for y above the graph of the line).In the end you should have the graph of a diagonal line shaded over the top.***Note: You will draw your graph with a solid line because because the question says GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO. If you ever get a graph that is strictly greater than or strictly less than, instead of drawing a solid line, draw a dotted line, to show that you're not including the values where y is equal to your function.If you get y> shade in the positive y direction and use a dotted line.................y< shade in the negative y direction and use a dotted line.................y>= shade in the positive y direction and use a solid line.................y

How do you record wind direction?

Wind direction is typically recorded using a wind vane, which is a device that aligns itself with the direction from which the wind is blowing. The wind vane can be part of a weather station or a standalone instrument, and it indicates the wind direction by pointing in that direction.

What direction should a runway be for a good airfield?

It is an advantage if fixed wing aircraft take off and land into the prevailing wind. Therefore runways are angled to allow this to occur. Larger airports will have a selection of runways to allow a choice to be made depending on the current wind direction.

How should vehicles approach parked aircraft?

You should always be extremely careful when approaching a parked aircraft. Always wait until the aircraft has come to a complete stop before approaching. Pilots are very careful to let their eyes adapt to the dark before flying at night, so when approaching an aircraft at night, you should turn off your headlights and leave your parking lights on. If possible you should approach from a direction that lets the pilot see you coming. The best idea is to come up along side a wingtip. You should always avoid parking directly in front of or directly behind an aircraft.

How can you determine if another aircraft is on a collision course with your aircraft?

There will be no apparent relative motion between your aircraft and the other aircraft. The radar readings should enable the pilots to avoid a collision between aircrafts.
