A map suggests that Atlanta is 730 miles in a direction of 5.00 north of cast from Dallas. The same map slum's that Chicago is 560 miles in a direction of 21.0 west of north from Atlanta. Figure P3.24 shows the locations of these three cities. Modeling the Earth as flat, use this information to find the displacement from Dallas 10 Chicago.
A roller coaster moves 200 ft horizontally and then rises 135 ft at an angle of 30.0 above the horizontal. Next, it travels 135 ft at an angle of 40.0 below the horizontal. Use graphical techniques to find the roller coaster's displacement from its starting point to the end of this movement.
A roller coaster moves 2.00 102 ft horizontally and then rises 135 ft at an angle of 30.0 above the horizontal. Next, it travels 135 ft at an angle of 40.0 below the horizontal. Use graphical techniques to find the roller coasters displacement from its starting point to the end of this movement.
A commuter airplane starts from ar. airport and takes the route shown in Figure P3.19. The plane first flies to city A, located 175 km away in a direction 30.0 north of east. Next, it flies for 150 km 20.0 west of north, to city B. Finally, the plane flies 190 km due west, to city C. Find the location of city C relative to the location of the starling point. Figure P3.19
A plane flies from base camp to lake A, a distance of 280 km at a direction of 20.0 north of east. After dropping off supplies, the plane flies to lake B, which is 190 km and 30.0 west of north from lake A. Graphically determine the distance and direction from lake B to the base camp.

Let us name three perpendicular directions as right, up, and toward you as you might name them when you are facing a television screen that lies in a vertical plane. Unit vectors for these directions are r. u. and L respectively. Consider the quantity (-3 2t ). (i) Is the magnitude of this vector (a) 6, (b) 3, (c) 2, or (d) 0? (ii) Is the direction of this vector (a) down, (b) toward you, (c) up, (d) away from you, or (e) left?
A map suggests that Atlanta is 730 miles in a direction 5.00c north of east from Dallas. The same map shows that Chicago is 560 miles in a direction 21.0 west of north from Atlanta. Figure P3.18 shows the location of these three cities. Modeling the Earth as flat, use this information to find the displacement from Dallas to Chicago. Figure P3.18
Miguel, an Ultimate Frisbee player, is running three drills (Fig. P3.17). In the first drill. Miguel runs a distance d straight down the field and then makes a 90 turn to the right, running an additional distance d. In the second drill, Miguel runs a distance d straight down the field and makes a 95 turn to the right before running an additional distance d. In the final drill, Miguel runs a distance d straight down the field and makes an 85 turn to the right before running an additional distance d. a. In which case did Miguel end up farthest from his starting point? In which case did he end up closest to his starting point? b. In which case(s) does Miguel end up farther away from his starting point than distance d? c. At what angle will his distance away be exactly d?
