A man in a maze makes three consecutive displacements. His first displacement is 8.00 m westward, and the second is 13.0 m northward. At the end of his third displacement he is back to where he started. Use the graphical method to find the magnitude and direction of his third displacement.
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.
Find the following for path A in Figure 3.54: (a) the total distance traveled, and (b) the magnitude and direction of the displacement from start to finish.
Figure P3.28 illustrates typical proportions of male (m) and female (f) anatomies. The displacements d1m and d1f from the soles of the feet to the navel have magnitudes of 104 cm and 64.0 cm. respectively. The displacements d2m and d2f from the navel to outstretched fingertips have magnitudes of 100 cm and 86.0 cm, respectively. Find the vector sum of these displacements d3=d1+d2 for both people. Figure P3.28
An aircraft undergoes two displacements. If the first displacement is directed at an angle of 225 with the positive x axis and has magnitude 30.0 miles, and if the resultant displacement is directed at an angle of 75.0 with the positive x axis and magnitude 22.0 miles, what are the magnitude and direction of the second displacement?
Suppose you walk 18.0 m straight west and then 25.0 m straight north. 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? (If you represent the two legs of the walk as vector displacements A and B as in Figure 3.55, then this problem asks you to find their sum R=A+B .)
(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.
Figure P3.60 illustrates the difference in proportions between the male (m) and female (f) anatomies. The displacements d1m. and d1f from the bottom of the feet to the navel have magnitudes of 104 cm and 84.0 cm, respectively. The displacements d2m and d2f have magnitudes of 50.0 cm and 43.0 cm, respectively. (a) Find the vector sum of the displacements dd1 and dd2 in each case. (b) The male figure is 180 cm tall, the female 168 cm. Normalize the displacements of each figure to a common height of 200 cm and re-form the vector sums as in part (a). Then find the vector difference between the two sums. Figure P3.60
A small plane flies 40.0 km in a direction 60 north of east and then files 30.0 km in a direction 15 north of east. Use a graphical method to find the total distance the plane covers from the starting point and the direction of the path to the 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?)
Three displacement vectors of a croquet ball are shown in Figure P3.22, where A=20.0 units, B=40.0 units, and C=30.0 units. Find (a) the resultant in unit-vector notation and (b) the magnitude and direction of the resultant displacement. Figure P3.22
