i want to answer and draw this question QUESTION 1An unidentified naval vessel is tracked by the Navistar Global Positioning System. With respect to a coordinate origin (0, 0) fixed at a lighthouse beacon, the position of the vesselis found to be x1 = 2.0 km west, y1 = 1.6 km south at ty = 0.30 h and x2 = 6.4 km west, y2 = 6.5 km north at t2 = 0.60 h. Using east-west as the x-axis and north-south as the y-axis,determine the average velocity in terms of its components. What are the direction and magnitude of the average velocity in kilometers per hour?

SOlution: Given that x1 = 2 km west y1 = 1.6 km south t1 = 0.3 h x2 = 6.4 km west y2 = 6.5 km north…

(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.

Problem An explorer in Antarctica leaves his shelter during a whiteout. He takes 50 m northeast, next 180 m at 72° north of west, and then 150 m due south. Save the explorer from becoming hopelessly lost by giving him the displacement, calculated by using the method of components, that will return him to his shelter. Solution By vector-component approach, we list down the given in a table as follows: Given X-component (w/ sign direction) y-component (w/ sign direction) A = 50 m NE m m B = 180 m 72° NW m m C = 150 m s m m Resultant m m Thus, the magnitude of the resultant vector is R= m With a direction of o = ONW Therefore, the vector needed for him to successfully get back home is Rhome = O SE m
