Part C
Based on the vector diagram in Part B, determine how far downstream of your starting point you will finally reach the opposite shore if the stream is 6.0
meters wide.
▾ View Available Hint(s)
Hint 1. Find the time to cross the stream
Notice that your velocity has been given in component form: 3.0 m/s across the stream and 4.0 m/s along the stream. Based on these velocity
components, how long will it take you to cross the 6.0 meter wide stream?
Express your answer in seconds.

You first walk 10 meters at an angle of 30 degrees East of North. Then,you walk 15 meters at an angle of 45 degrees South of East. Assume that East is +x and North is+y, and assume you started at the origin (0,0).
A. Make a graph with x- and y-axes and draw your path on that graph (to scale, or at least asclose as you can get). Start the first vector at the origin, and the second vector at the tip ofthe first vector. Then, draw the resultant vector (their sum).
B. Break each part of the walk into their x- and y-components and then sum them to get thex- and y-components of the resultant vector. Make sure to include units and unit vectors.
C. What is your displacement from where you originally started?
D. If the whole walk took 40 seconds, then what was your average velocity

The first swimmer goes straight, and in this case the trajectory is deviated by the river flow. The second chooses to swim with an angle in order to arrive at a point exactly in front of the start point. 1. Draw a diagram of the velocity vectors of this situation, taking care to make all the vector lengths to the same scale. 2. Which swimmer will arrive first on the other shore of the river?

The students make the following statements. Student 1: This graph shows that the vertical acceleration of the box is constant, and that the box’s speed decreases for the entire time shown. Student 2: The area between the graph and the time axis is the box’s vertical displacement, but the graph is incorrect because the positive displacement should be equal to the negative displacement. The angle of the ramp is changed such that it is larger than θ but less than 90 degrees, while the height of the end of the ramp remains the same.
