An aircraft undergoes two displacements. If the first displacement is directed at an angle of 225 with the positive x axis and has magnitude 30.0 miles, and if the resultant displacement is directed at an angle of 75.0 with the positive x axis and magnitude 22.0 miles, what are the magnitude and direction of the second displacement?
A man in a maze makes three consecutive displacements. His first displacement is 8.00 m westward, and the second is 13.0 m northward. At the end of his third displacement he is back to where he started. Use the graphical method to find the magnitude and direction of his third displacement.

A trapper walks a 5.0-km straigt4ine distance from his cabin to the lake, as shown in the following figure.

Figure P3.60 illustrates the difference in proportions between the male (m) and female (f) anatomies. The displacements d1m. and d1f from the bottom of the feet to the navel have magnitudes of 104 cm and 84.0 cm, respectively. The displacements d2m and d2f have magnitudes of 50.0 cm and 43.0 cm, respectively. (a) Find the vector sum of the displacements dd1 and dd2 in each case. (b) The male figure is 180 cm tall, the female 168 cm. Normalize the displacements of each figure to a common height of 200 cm and re-form the vector sums as in part (a). Then find the vector difference between the two sums. Figure P3.60
