Homework Constant Velocity Problems

1) The position vector of a yacht t hours after 12 noon is given by

the equation
r= (202 )+t (−34 )
Find
a) The speed of the yacht
b) The position vector of the yacht at 3 p.m [5M]

2) At 1200 hours, a ship leaves a point Q with position vector

(−20 i+18 j) km relative to an origin O. The ship travels with
velocity ( 8 i−6 j ) km h−1.
Find
a) The speed of the ship
b) The position vector of the ship at 2 p.m
c) Find the time when the ship is at the point with position
vector 20 i−12 j km
