When the airport sends out a rescue crew, in which direction and how far should this crew fly to go directly to this plane?

Step-by-Step Solution:

Solution 68P Step 1 of 5: First we shall draw the displacement vectors, First displacement is 170 km at 68° east of north , Component of A along x and y direction, Ax=170 cos(68 ) =63.7 km Ay=170 sin(68 ) =157.8 km
