Johnson drove east for 3 seconds with a rate of 5 meters per second. He then took a quick turn to 50o West of North with the same speed. After 2 seconds in the same direction, he started accelarating with a rate of 2 m/s2 for about a second before hitting Gusion. Find Johnson's displacement (in meters).

An explorer is caught in a whiteout (in which the snowfall is so thick that the ground cannot be distinguished from the sky) while returning to base camp. He was supposed to travel due north for 5.1 km, but when the snow clears, he discovers that he actually traveled 8.3 km at 53o north of due east. (a) How far and (b) in what direction (south of due west) must he now travel to reach base camp?
