A sailor in a small boat encounters shifting winds. She sails 8 km south, then 15 km 30o E of N, and then 12 km 25o N of W. Use the polygon method to determine the magnitude and direction of her resultant displacement.
A flock of ducks is trying to migrate south for the winter, but they keep being blown off course by a wind blowing from the west at 12 m/s. A wise elder duck finally realizes that the solution is to fly at an angle to the wind. If the ducks can fly at 16 m/s relative to the air, in what direction should they head in order to move directly south?

A field biologist is studying the migration patterns of northern gannets (a type of seabird). On one particularday, she records that they fly 5.0 km northeast, then turn toward to the south of east by 30 degrees and fly 4.0 kmin the new direction. How far north or south of their original position are the birds?
