a. Carlo walks 8 km East, then 5 km South and finally 6 km West. Find his final displacement. b. Carlo and Karlo pull at two ropes attached to a cabinet with forces 80 N and 120 N. What is the resultant force if they pull at right angle to each other? c. Carlo leaves Buting Senior High School, drives 26 km due North, then turns onto a street and continues in a direction 30° NE for 35 km and finally turns onto the highway due East for 40 km. What is his total displacement?

A diver explores a shallow reef off the coast of Belize. She initially swims 90.0 m north, makes a turn to the east and continues for 200.0 m, then follows a big grouper for 80.0 m in the direction 30 north of east. In the meantime, a local current displaces her by 150.0 m south. Assuming the current is no longer present, in what direction and how far should she now swim to come back to the point where she started?

Two muscles on the back of the leg pull upwards on the Achilles tendon. Each force makes an angle of θ=20∘θ=20∘ with the vertical, with one pulling up and to the right and the other pulling up and to the left. Each force has a magnitude F=F=573 N.Write an expression for the magnitude of the sum, FsumFsum, of these two forces. What is the magnitude, in newtons, of the sum of these two forces?
A kayaker needs to paddle north across a 100-mm-wide harbor. The tide is going out, creating a tidal current that flows to the east at 2.0 m/sm/s. The kayaker can paddle with a speed of 3.0 m/sm/s. In which direction should he paddle in order to travel straight across the harbor? How long will it take him to cross?
