A car is driven east for a distance of 49 km, then north for 28 km, and then in a direction 32° east of north for 27 km. Determine (a) the magnitude of the car's total displacement from its starting point and (b) the angle (from east) of the car's total displacement measured from its starting direction.

A jogger travels a route that has two parts. The first is a displacement A of 2.65 km due south, and the second involves a displacement → B that points due east. The resultant displacement A + B has a magnitude of 4.75 km. (a) What is the magnitude of B, and (b) what is the direction of A + B as a positive angle relative to due south? Suppose that A - B had a magnitude of 4.75 km. (c) What then would be the magnitude of B, and (d) what is the direction of A - B relative to due south? (a) Number i (b) Number i (c) Number i (d) Number i Units Units Units Units > > >

A group of backpackers, after three days of hiking, are 30 km north of their starting position. On the first day, they hiked 20 km east. On the second day, they hiked 30 km, 30 degrees NW. Use the component method to calculate their displacement on the third day.

Vector X has magnitude 9.0 m and is directed east. Vector Y has magnitude 8.0 m and is directed north. What is the resultant displacement of the vectors?

A girl delivering newspapers covers her route by traveling 5.00 blocks west, 4.00 blocks north, and then 4.00 blocks east. (a) What is her resultant displacement? Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. blocks

Vector A has a magnitude of 26 units and points in the positive y-direction. When vector B is added to A, the resultant vector A + B points in the negative y-direction with a magnitude of 11 units. Find the magnitude and direction of B. magnitude unit(s) direction ---Select---

A car is driven 230 km west and then 85 km southwest. What is the magnitude of the car's displacement?

A traveler first drives 22.0 km east, then 27.0 km southeast, and finally 10.7 km south. Find the traveler's total displacement.    (Confused with how to get the Direction answer for this problem. Displacement is 50.75 km.)

A whale swims due east for a distance of 6.95 km, turns around and goes due west for 1.87 km, and finally turns around again and heads 6.37 km due east. (a) What is the total distance traveled by the whale? (b) What is the magnitude of the displacement of the whale? (a) Number Units (b) Number Units
