Starting at the origin, a person walks 350 meters in a direction 30.0° South of West, then 570 meters in a direction 35.0° West of North. If the person now wishes to walk in a straight line back to the origin, what must be the magnitude and direction of the displacement?
The coordinates of a particle moving in the XY plane are given as function of time by: X = 5m + ( 7 m/s^4) t ^4 Y = ( 10 m/s)t + (3 m/s^5)t ^5 Find the position vector of the body at t = 3.5 seconds and instantaneous acceleration of the body at t = 3.5 sec
A football player runs for a distance d1 = 7.17 m in 1.08 s, at an angle of θ = 41 degrees to the 50-yard line, then turns left and runs a distance d2 = 10.66 m in 1.62 s, in a direction perpendicular to the 50-yard line. The diagram shows these two displacements relative to an x-y coordinate system, where the x axis is parallel to the 50-yard line, and the y axis is perpendicular to the 50-yard line.What is the magnitude of the total displacement, in meters? What angle, in degrees, does the displacement make with the y axis? (Note that the angle θ was given as measured from the x axis rather than the y axis.) What is the magnitude of the average velocity, in m/s? What angle, in degrees does the average velocity make with the y axis? (Note that the angle θ was given as measured from the x axis rather than the y axis.)
