A map suggests that Atlanta is 730 miles in a direction 5.00c north of east from Dallas. The same map shows that Chicago is 560 miles in a direction 21.0 west of north from Atlanta. Figure P3.18 shows the location of these three cities. Modeling the Earth as flat, use this information to find the displacement from Dallas to Chicago. Figure P3.18
A pirate has buried his treasure on an island with five trees located at the points (30.0 m, 20.0 m), (60.0 m, 80.0 m). (10.0 m, 10.0 m), (40.0 m, 30.0 m), and (70.0 m, 60.0 m), all measured relative to some origin, as shown in Figure P3.46. His ships log instructs you to start at tree A and move toward tree B, but to cover only one-half the distance between A and B. Then move toward tree C, covering one-third the distance between your current location and C. Next move toward tree D, covering one-fourth the distance between where you are and D. Finally move toward tree E, covering one-fifth the distance between you and E, stop, and dig. (a) Assume you have correctly determined the order in which the pirate labeled the trees as A, B, C, D, and E as shown in the figure. What are the coordinates of the point where his treasure is buried? (b) What If? What if you do not really know the way the pirate labeled the trees? What would happen to the answer if you rearranged the order of the trees, for instance, to B (30 m, 20 m), A (60 m, 80 m), E (10 m, 10 m), C (40 m, 30 m), and D (70 m, 60 m)? State reasoning to show that the answer does not depend on the order in which the trees are labeled. Figure P3.46
An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 172 ft, then climbs 117 ft at an angle of 32.0° above the horizontal. It then moves 117 ft at an angle of 41.0° below the horizontal. If we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (Give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.) magnitude= ? ft direction = ?° counterclockwise from the +x-axis
One afternoon, a couple walks three-fourths of the way around a circular lake, the radius of which is 2.89km. They start at the west side of the lake and head due south to begin with. What is the distance they travel? What is the magnitude of the couple’s displacement? What is the direction (relative to due east) of the couple’s displacement?
Most days after lunch, I like to take a stroll around campus ( given it’s not too hot ). Suppose on this day, I walk 4.38 meters 53.50 degrees north-east. If I then walk another 3.24 meters north, how far will I have to walk in a straight line to get back to the physics building where I started?
Hi please help, I am not sure how to solve this problem. If you are walking 400m east but then decide to turn back and walk 700m west, all within 10 minutes, what is the total distance that you covered and what is the displacement relative to where you started? Assume that east is the positive direction
An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 172 ft, then climbs 147 ft at an angle of 32.0° above the horizontal. It then moves 147 ft at an angle of 48.0° below the horizontal. If we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (Give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.) Sig figs Considered.
1A) Saanich is walking around the campus. Saanich walks 2.4 km north. Saanich then makes a left turn and walks 1.45 km west. Finally, Saanich makes a right turn and walks 1.2 km north and sits on a bench. What is the magnitude and displacement of Saanich from the starting point? a) 3.9 km, 24° north of west b)5.3 km, 59° north of west c) no answer is correct d)3.9 km, 66° north of west e)5.3 km, 70° north of west 1B) Saanich drives a car of mass 1800 kg on the Ford Test Track. If the initial speed of the car is 32m/s and the track can be approximated as a circle of radius 25 m, what is the average velocity Saanich would be travelling at during a single revolution? a) 100 m/s b) zero m/s c) 44 m/s d) 26 m/s e) 32 m/s 1C) Saanich is participating in a physics lab. He fires a projectile at an angle of 47.0° off of a desk. If Saanich shoots the projectile at a speed of 25 m/s, how long does it take the projectile to reach its highest point? a) 1.7 s b) 2.9 s c) 1.9 s d) 9.8 s e)1.5 s
Mr. Brown takes a walk in the park. He first travels 600. m NW and then turns and walks 800. m @ 20.0° WoS. What is his overall displacement of his walk? Use the triangle method to solve this. Should you use the component method, I will award zero points. I know the answer, I just don’t know how to get it. Answer: 771 m @ 25.1° SoW Thanks!!

A car travels 90 meters due north in 15 seconds. Then the car turns 32° west of north and travels 40 meters. What is the magnitude and direction of the car's resultant displacement? To answer this problem, what two methods will give us the accurate answer?
as a test of orienteering skills, your physics class holds a contest in a large open field. Each contestant is told to travel 20.8 m due north from the starting point, then 38.0 m due east, and finally 18.0 m in the direction 33.0 west of south. After specified displacements, a contestant will find a silver dollar hidden under a rock the winner is the person who takes the shortest tme to reach the location of the silver dollar. 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?
