Physics problem?

Question

A bicyclist is headed due east.A 5.00-m/s wind is blowing partially into the rider's face and is coming from a direction that is 35 degrees south of east. the speed and direction of the wind constitute a vector quantity known as velocity. in effect, then, the rider must "pump" against a component of the wind's velocity vector. What is the magnitude of this component?

Answer 1

5.00 cos(35)

= 4.10 m/s.
