Two siblings, Kaeya and Diluc, decided to take a walk around Mondstadt, following its perimeter guarded by walls. For those who haven't seen Mondstadt, you can imagine it as a city of walls with beautiful German architecture. Let's roughly assume that the walls are encircling it in a perfect circle. Both Kaeya and Diluc started at the front of the huge city gate (marked at 0 degrees), and they walk separately, away from each other. Assuming that radius of the circular city of Mondstadt to be 500 m, and the constant walking speed of both siblings to be 0.5 m/s, how long until the siblings achieve the greatest separation distance between them? 3.

You take a three-day hiking. On the first day, you travel 5.0 km heading East. On the second day you’ve enjoyed the scenery so much that you forgot to take note how far you have walked and in what direction. On the third day, after wandering for 8.5 km and in the direction 37o South of West, you find yourself in the base camp where you have started (which means the total displacement is zero). Determine your displacement during the second day of your trip.
