What is the gardeners displacement (Fig. 2.21)? Give a general direction, such as south or west. (Hint: Think of a 3-4-5 triangle, Pythagorean theorem.) Figure 2.21 A Walk through the Garden See Exercises 1 and 2.
Suppose you take two steps A and B (that is, two nonzero displacements). Under what circumstances can you end up at your starting point? More generally, under what circumstances can two nonzero vectors add to give zero? Is the maximum distance you can end up from the starting point A+B the sum of the lengths of the two steps?
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.
Check your Understanding A blue fly lands on a sheet of graph paper a point located 10.0 cm to the right of its left edge and 8.0 cm above its bottom edge and walks slowly to a point located 5.0 cm from the left edge and 5.0 cm from the bottom edge. Choose the rectangular coordinate system with the origin at the lower left-side comet of the paper and find the displacement vector of the fly. Illustrate your solution by graphing.
Do Exercise 3.16 again using analytical techniques and change the second leg of the walk to 25.0 m straight south. (This is equivalent to subtracting B from A —that is, finding R=AB ) (b) Repeat again, but now you first walk 25.0 m north and then 18.0 m east. (This is equivalent to subtract A from B —that is, to find A=B+C. Is that consistent with your result?)
Suppose you first walk 12.0 m in a direction 20° west of north and then 20.0 m in a direction 40.0° south of west. How far are you from your starting point, and what is the compass direction of a line connecting your starting point to your final position? (If you represent the two legs of the walk as vector displacements A and B, as in Figure 3.56, then this problem finds their sum R=A+B. )
Suppose you walk 18.0 m straight west and then 25.0 m straight north. How far are you from your starting point? What is your displacement vector? What is the direction of your displacement? Assume the +x -axis is horizontal to the right.
Do not solve the full qn My question is why is the vector VAot = 1.5 and VAon =-2.6 as shown in the solution. I understand VAot is = -3cos30=-1.5 and VAon = -3sin30 =-2.6 Why is it postive 1.5 instead of negative 1.5 or for VAon why isit negative 2.6 and not positive 2.6? Why is Vb1t = -0.866 and not 0.866 and Vb1n = -0.5 and not 0.5. I dont get it how to visualise the vector direction. Please use a vector diagram with the angles to illustrate it.

(II) is a vector 24.8 units in magnitude and points at an angle of 23.4° above the negative x axis. (a) Sketch this vector. (b) Calculate Vx andVy (c) Use Vx and Vy to obtain (again) the magnitude and direction of V [Note:Part (c) is a good way to check if you’ve resolved your vector correctly.
Solve the following problem using analytical techniques: Suppose you walk 18.0 m straight west and then 25.0 m straight north. How far are you from your starting point, and what is the compass direction of a line connecting your starting point to your final position? (If you represent the two legs of the walk as vector displacements A and B, as in Figure 3.58, then this problem asks you to find their sum R=A+B.)
I need help with a University Physics 1 (Unit Measurement and Vectors) problem with explanations upon it: A spy report about a suspected car reads as follows. "The car moved 2.00 km towards the east, made a perpendicular left turn, ran for 500 m, made a perpendicular right turn, ran for 4.00 km and stopped". Find the displacement of the car (i.e. Magnitude Resultant and Resultant Direction (angle)).
