(a) Repeat the problem two problems prior, but for the second leg you walk 20.0 m in a direction 40.0° north of east (which is equivalent to subtracting B from A that is, to finding R=AB ). (b) Repeat the problem two problems prior, but now you first walk 20.0 m in a direction 40.0° south of west and then 12.0 m in a direction 20.0° east of south (which is equivalent to subtracting A from B that is, to finding R=BA=R ). Show that this is the case.
A hiker starts at his camp and moves the following distances while exploring his surroundings: 75.0 m north, 2.50 102 m east, 125 m at an angle 30.0 north of east, and 1.50 102 m south. (a) Find his resultant displacement from camp. (Take east as the positive x-direction and north as the positive y-direction.) (b) Would changes in the order in which the hiker makes the given displacements alter his final position? Explain.

How far are you from your starting point, and what is the compass direction of a line connecting your starting point to your final position?

Do Exercise 3.16 again using analytical techniques and change the second leg of the walk to 25.0 m straight south. (This is equivalent to subtracting B from A —that is, finding R=AB ) (b) Repeat again, but now you first walk 25.0 m north and then 18.0 m east. (This is equivalent to subtract A from B —that is, to find A=B+C. Is that consistent with your result?)
