A pirate has buried his treasure on an island with five trees located at the points (30.0 m, 20.0 m), (60.0 m, 80.0 m), (10.0 m, 10.0 m), (40.0 m, 30.0 m), and (70.0 m, 60.0 m), all measured relative to some origin, as shown in Figure P1.69. His ships log instructs you to start at tree A and move toward tree B, but to cover only one-half the distance between A and B. Then move toward tree C, covering one-third the distance between your current location and C. Next move toward tree D, covering one-fourth the distance between where you are and D. Finally move toward tree E, covering one-fifth the distance between you and E, stop, and dig. (a) Assume you have correctly determined the order in which the pirate labeled the trees as A, B, C, D, and E as shown in the figure. What are the coordinates of the point where his treasure is buried? (b) What If? What if you do not really know the way the pirate labeled the trees? What would happen to the answer if you rearranged the order of the trees, for instance, to B (30 m, 20 m), A (60 m, 80 m), E (10 m, 10 m), C (40 m, 30 m), and D (70 m, 60 m)? State reasoning to show that the answer does not depend on the order in which the trees are labeled. Figure 1.69

I started hiking on a trail that was 10 kilometers long at a speed of 5 km/h. My brother walked in circles around a track at 4 km/h. At the end of 2 hours, who had the greatest change in position? Explain your answer.
“An object is moving at a speed of v(t)= 3(t^2-1)+5tan (7t), where V is in m / s and t in seconds. What is your acceleration during the first two seconds? To answer this question, in mathematical terms, what are you asked to calculate an integral, a derivative, or a rate of change?
1. For centuries, we accpeted Newton's 2nd Law as the standard model for motion. Then Einstien came along and siggested a modification in cases of high velocity. The Lorenz factor: γ(v)=(1/square-root of 1−(v^2/c^2)) a) The constant (c) is the speed of light, which is 3 * 10^8 m/s. What is the lim as v approaches 400 γ(v)? You will have to track many decimal places to see a difference from 1. A bullet travels 400 m/s; this limit indicates that time dilation is extremely small (and basically negigible) at that speed. b) In the movie Interstellar, time dialation occurs as 1 hour on the water planet corresponds to 7 years on earth. What is the factor γ in this case (what is the ratio of 7 years to 1 hour)? c) If we rearrange the equation for γ and solve for v, we get: v = c square-root of (γ^2 - 1/γ^2) What velocity v is necesary to get the γ you found in part (b)? d) What is the lim as v approaches c γ(v) ?…

A rocket fired vertically up from the north pole achieves a velocity of 28 000 km/h at an altitude of 376 km when its fuel is exhausted. Calculate the additional vertical height h reached by the rocket before it starts its descent back to the earth. The coasting phase of its flight occurs above the atmosphere. Consult Fig. 1/1 in choosing the appropriate value of gravitational acceleration and use the mean radius of the earth from Table D/2. (Note: Launching from the earth’s pole avoids considering the effect of the earth’s rotation.) determine h in km
In the answer, it gives a formula f-ff=m(0) and afterwards simplies into 120 - ff = 0 and further into ff=120N. My question is how do you not have to divide by 0 to finish the equation if that makes sense. To simply further why are we able to ignore the m(0) portion?
