5. A stray dog is walking along a road with a constant speed of 3 miles per hour. He walks for 13 minutes. How far does he go in miles? ( Watch your units here, you cannot mix hours and minutes). x= Vaug-At X-13maLlhr 160 min =0.216hs b) He is then picked up by a kind truck driver, who gives him a ride to the address on his tag. The truck travels at an average speed of 45 miles per hour for 22 minutes. How far does the truck travel in miles? C) The dog is then dropped off with his family and lies down to take a nap. What is the dog's average speed in miles per hour for the whole trip. You need the TOTAL distance in miles divided by the TOTAL time in hours.

(a) If your speedometer has an uncertainty of 2.0 km/h at a speed of 90 km/h, what is the percent uncertainty? (b) If it has the same percent uncertainty when it reads 60 km/h, what is the range of speeds you could be going?
A map suggests that Atlanta is 730. miles in a direction 5.00 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 P1.68 shows the location of these three cities. Modeling the Earth as flat, use this information to find the displacement from Dallas to Chicago. Figure P1.68
A surveyor measures the distance across a straight river by the following method: starting directly across from a tree on the opposite bank, he walks x = 1.00 102 m along the riverbank to establish a baseline. Then he sights across to the tree. The angle from his baseline lo the tree is = 35.0 (Fig. P1.53). How wide is the river? Figure P1.53
A surveyor measures the distance across a straight river by the following method (Fig. P1.6). Starting directly across from a tree on the opposite bank, she walks d = 100 m along the riverbank to establish a baseline. Then she sights across to the tree. The angle from her baseline to the tree is 0 = 35.0. How wide is the river? Figure P1.6

When non-metric units were used in the United Kingdom, a unit of mass called the pound-mass (lbm) was employed, where 1 lbm = 0.4539 kg. (a) If there is an uncertainty of 0.0001 kg in the pound-mass unit, what is its percent uncertainty? (b) Based on that percent uncertainty, what mass in pound-mass has an uncertainty of 1 kg when converted to kilograms?
A sidewalk is to be constructed around a swimming pool that measures (10.0 0.1) m by (17.0 0.1) m. If the sidewalk is to measure (1.00 0.01) m wide by (9.0 0.1) cm thick, what volume of concrete is needed and what is the approximate uncertainty of this volume?
The Hoover Dam Bridge connecting Arizona and Nevada opened in October 2010 ( Fig. 1.18). It is the highest and longest arched concrete bridge in the Western Hemisphere, rising 890 ft above the Colorado River and extending 1900 ft in length. What are these dimensions in meters?

A surveyor measures the distance across a straight river by the following method (Fig. P3.7). Starting directly across from a tree on the opposite bank, she walks d = 100 m along the riverbank to establish a baseline. Then she sights across to the tree. The angle from her baseline to the tree is = 35.0. How wide is the river?
