So basically i have a problem concerning non-uniform acceleration (more so angles).
Basically it was a three part question talking about a hawk flying in a horizontal arc of a radius.
The question is: Find the direction of acceleration relative to
the direction of motion under these conditions. Answer between −180 degrees and 180 degrees.
Answer in units of degrees.
From the previous two questions the answers (which are now givens) are:
Centripetal acceleration (first problem) : .950694m/s^2
Tangential acceleration (second problem) : 1.54m/s^2
Acceleration Magnitude: 1.8098121m/s^2
Edit: 31.688 degrees... man im stupid
wouldnt you use inv tan?
