an experimental jetplane just after takeoff climbs with a speed of 500km/hr at an angle of 37 degrees with the horizontal. At what rate is the plane gaining altitude?

4 answers

500 x sin37 = 300km/hr
500 x sin37= 300km/hr
SOHCATOA
Sin37= v/500
V=500 • sin37
=300.90 ≈ 301 km/h
An experimental plane just after takeoff climbs with a speed of 300 km/h at an angle of 30 degrees with the horizontal. a) At what rate is the plane gaining altitude? (Hint, the vertical component of velocity is the rate that the plane is gaining altitude). b). What is the horizontal component of velocity for the plane? Round answers to the nearest whole number.
