Explanation / Answer

Here ,

3)

speed , v = 87.6 m/s

theta = 261.5 degree

speed in west direction = v * cos(theta)

speed in west direction = 87.6 * cos(261.5 degree)

speed in west direction = -12.95 m/s

distance travelled in towards in 1 hour = speed * time

distance travelled in towards in 1 hour = 12.95 * 3600

distance travelled in towards in 1 hour = 46613 m

the distance travelled in towards in 1 hour is 46613 m in west direction
