- Bruce begins 7 kilometers to the north of town and rides his bike along a straight trail which leads to a park 3km west of town. It takes him 20 minutes to cover this distance. Write a vector in component form that describes his ride while also finding the magnitude and direction of this vector. Also, find the component of Bruce's motion which is in the direction of SW using a unit vector that uses both forms of the dot product (algebraic and geometric), then write parametric equations expressing his motion with the town being represented by the origin and t=0 being his starting point. Using these equations, what is his position after 5 minutes?
