In reaching her destination, a backpacker walks with an average velocity of 1.48 m/s, due west. This average velocity results, because she hikes for 6.55 km with an average velocity of 2.75 m/s, due west, turns around, and hikes with an average velocity of 0.513 m/s, due east. How far east did she walk?

A cannon ball is fired with an initial speed of 123 m/s at angle of 60 degrees from the horizontal. Express the initial velocity as a linear combination of its unit vector components. ( m/s) + ( m/s) At the maximum height, the speed of the cannon ball is v = ? m/s and the magnitude of its acceleration is a = ? m/s2. The time needed to reach maximum height is t = ? s. The maximum height reached by the cannon ball is H = ? m.
