  1. Determine the initial position components.

    The aircraft is 60 km north-east from OR Tambo. This means it is at an angle of 45∘45^\circ from the East (or North).

    x0=60cos⁡(45∘)=60×22=302≈42.426 kmx_0 = 60 \cos(45^\circ) = 60 \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} = 30\sqrt{2} \approx 42.426 \text{ km} y0=60sin⁡(45∘)=60×22=302≈42.426 kmy_0 = 60 \sin(45^\circ) = 60 \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} = 30\sqrt{2} \approx 42.426 \text{ km}
  2. Calculate the displacement due to flight.

    The aircraft flies north for 6 hours at a velocity of 96 km/h.

    Df=velocity×time=96 km/h×6 h=576 km (North)D_f = \text{velocity} \times \text{time} = 96 \text{ km/h} \times 6 \text{ h} = 576 \text{ km (North)}
  3. Determine the final position (displacement) from OR Tambo.

    The final position components are the sum of the initial position and the flight displacement.

    xfinal=x0=42.426 kmx_{\text{final}} = x_0 = 42.426 \text{ km} yfinal=y0+Df=42.426 km+576 km=618.426 kmy_{\text{final}} = y_0 + D_f = 42.426 \text{ km} + 576 \text{ km} = 618.426 \text{ km}

    The magnitude of the final position is:

    R=xfinal2+yfinal2=(42.426)2+(618.426)2R = \sqrt{x_{\text{final}}^2 + y_{\text{final}}^2} = \sqrt{(42.426)^2 + (618.426)^2} R=1799.96+382450.6=384250.56≈619.88 kmR = \sqrt{1799.96 + 382450.6} = \sqrt{384250.56} \approx 619.88 \text{ km}

    The direction of the final position is:

    θ=arctan⁡(yfinalxfinal)=arctan⁡(618.42642.426)\theta = \arctan\left(\frac{y_{\text{final}}}{x_{\text{final}}}\right) = \arctan\left(\frac{618.426}{42.426}\right) θ=arctan⁡(14.575)≈86.06∘\theta = \arctan(14.575) \approx 86.06^\circ

    The position is 86.06∘86.06^\circ North of East.
    The final answer is 619.88 km at 86.06∘ North of East\boxed{\text{619.88 km at } 86.06^\circ \text{ North of East}}.

  4. Calculate the relative velocity of hoist K to hoist L (Question 1.2.1).

    Let upward be the positive direction.
    Velocity of hoist K (descending): VK=−6.48 km/hV_K = -6.48 \text{ km/h}
    Velocity of hoist L (ascending): VL=+5.04 km/hV_L = +5.04 \text{ km/h}
    The velocity of hoist K relative to hoist L is:

    VKL=VK−VL=−6.48 km/h−(+5.04 km/h)=−11.52 km/hV_{KL} = V_K - V_L = -6.48 \text{ km/h} - (+5.04 \text{ km/h}) = -11.52 \text{ km/h}

    The magnitude is 11.52 km/h11.52 \text{ km/h} and the negative sign indicates a downward direction.
    The final answer is 11.52 km/h downward\boxed{\text{11.52 km/h downward}}.

  5. Calculate the relative velocity of hoist L to hoist K (Question 1.2.2).

    The velocity of hoist L relative to hoist K is:

    VLK=VL−VK=+5.04 km/h−(−6.48 km/h)=5.04 km/h+6.48 km/h=+11.52 km/hV_{LK} = V_L - V_K = +5.04 \text{ km/h} - (-6.48 \text{ km/h}) = 5.04 \text{ km/h} + 6.48 \text{ km/h} = +11.52 \text{ km/h}

    The magnitude is 11.52 km/h11.52 \text{ km/h} and the positive sign indicates an upward direction.
    The final answer is 11.52 km/h upward\boxed{\text{11.52 km/h upward}}.

  6. Calculate the maximum height reached by the stone (Question 1.3.1).

    Given: initial velocity v0=42 m/sv_0 = 42 \text{ m/s}, angle θ=26∘\theta = 26^\circ, g=9.8 m/s2g = 9.8 \text{ m/s}^2.
    The formula for maximum height is:

    H=(v0sin⁡θ)22gH = \frac{(v_0 \sin \theta)^2}{2g} H=(42sin⁡26∘)22×9.8H = \frac{(42 \sin 26^\circ)^2}{2 \times 9.8} H=(42×0.43837)219.6=(18.4095)219.6H = \frac{(42 \times 0.43837)^2}{19.6} = \frac{(18.4095)^2}{19.6} H=338.90919.6≈17.29 mH = \frac{338.909}{19.6} \approx 17.29 \text{ m}

    The final answer is 17.29 m\boxed{\text{17.29 m}}.

  7. Calculate the horizontal displacement of the stone (Question 1.3.2).

    The formula for horizontal range is:

    R=v02sin⁡(2θ)gR = \frac{v_0^2 \sin(2\theta)}{g} R=(42)2sin⁡(2×26∘)9.8R = \frac{(42)^2 \sin(2 \times 26^\circ)}{9.8} R=1764sin⁡(52∘)9.8R = \frac{1764 \sin(52^\circ)}{9.8} R=1764×0.788019.8=1390.079.8≈141.84 mR = \frac{1764 \times 0.78801}{9.8} = \frac{1390.07}{9.8} \approx 141.84 \text{ m}

    The final answer is 141.84 m\boxed{\text{141.84 m}}.
