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 P1.69. 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 1.69
In an attempt to escape a desert island, a castaway builds a raft and sets out to sea. The wind shifts a great deal during the day and he is blown along the following directions: 2.50 km and 45.0 north of west, then 4.70 km and 60.0 south of east, then 1.30 km and 25.0 south of west, then 5.10 km straight east, then 1.70 km and 5.00 east of north, then 7.20 km and 55.0 south of west, and finally 2.80 km and 10.0 north of east. Use a graphical method to find the castaway’s final position relative to the island.
Hi, I have one more follow-up question regarding a similar problem where I need to find the height: In a rollercoaster ride a passenger car at the top of the first hill is travelling at 3.5 m/s. The carthen descends on rails to the bottom of the slope and then goes up the second hill where the speed is 10 m/s. Find the difference in height between the first and second hill. (Result 4.47m) Attached is the formula I tried to use, however, I get a different result so I am definitely doing something wrong. Online I didn't find a similar problem so I am asking here as a last chance. Can you help?

To burn the fats she accumulated during the lockdown, Katie walks south at a speed of 2.00 m/s for 60.0 minutes. She then turns around and walks north a distance 3000 m in 25.0 minutes. What is her total distance covered?
In your new job, you are the technical advisor for the writers of a gangster movie about Bonnie and Clyde. In one scene Bonnie and Clyde try to flee from one state to another. If they get across the state line, they could evade capture, at least for a while until they become Federal fugitives. In the script, Bonnie is driving down the highway at 108 km/hr and passes a concealed police car that is 1 km from the state line. The instant Bonnie and Clyde pass the patrol car, the cop pulls onto the highway and accelerates at a constant rate of 2 m/s2. The writers want to know if they make it across the state line before the pursuing cop catches up with them
