As a test of orienteering skill, your physics class holds a contest in a large, open field. Each contestant is told to travel 20.8m due north from the starting point then 38 m due east and finally 18m in the direction 33° west of south. After the specified displacement, a contestant will find a silver coin hidden under a rock. The winner is the person who takes the shortest time to reach the location of the silver coin. Remembering what you learned in class, you run on a straight line from the starting point to the hidden coin. How far and in what direction do you run?
