At one instant a bicyclist is 40.0 m due east of a park's flagpole, going due south with a speed of 11.0 m/s. Then 37.0 s later, the cyclist is 40.0 m due north of the flagpole, going due east with a speed of 11.0 m/s. For the cyclist in this 37.0 s interval, what are the (e) magnitude and (f) direction of the average acceleration?

On a spacecraft two engines fire for a time of 389 s. One gives the craft an acceleration in the x direction of ax = 3.41 m/s^2, while the other produces an acceleration in the y direction of ay = 7.34 m/s^2. At the end of the firing period, the craft has velocity components of vx = 1860 m/s and vy = 4290 m/s. Find the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the initial velocity. Express the direction as an angle with respect to the +x axis.

A rugby player runs with the ball directly toward his opponent’s goal, along the positive direction of an x axis. He can legally pass the ball to a teammate as long as the ball’s velocity relative to the field does not have a positive x component. Suppose the player runs at speed 4.0 m/s relative to the field while he passes the ball with velocity relative to himself. If has magnitude 6.0 m/s, what is the smallest angle it can have for the pass to be legal?
