Transcribed Image Text:5. You are camping with two friends, Joe and Karl. Since all
of you like your privacy, you don't pitch your tents close
together. Joe's tent is 21.0 m from yours, in the direction of
23° south of east. Karl's tent is 32.0 m from yours, in the
direction 37° north of east. What is the distance between
Karl's tent and Joe's tent?

- A map suggests that Atlanta is 730 miles in a direction 5.00° north of east from Dallas. The same map shows that Chicago is 560 miles in a direction 21.0° west of north from Atlanta. The figure below shows the location of these three cities. Modeling the Earth as flat, use this information to find the displacement from Dallas to Chicago. magnitude 334.15 direction 52.27 Chicago Dallas 560 mi 730 mi X mi Xnorth of east of Dallas 5.00 21.0° Atlantaarrow_forward2.arrow_forward26.

- 4. Suppose you leave you house, hike 2.0 mi due east, then 3.0 mi due north, and then 6.0 miles 30 north of west to your favorite tree. Find the total displacement, magnitude and direction, from your house to the tree. 6 mi 30° 2m² 3 miarrow_forwardGiven the two vectors A = ( 5.5i - 3j) and B = (-9i - 8j) determine the following: A. Vector C = A + B in vector notation, it's magnitude and its direction counterclockwise from the +x-axis. B. Vector D = A - B in Vector notation, it's magnitude and its direction counterclockwise from the +x-axis.arrow_forwardThe answer seems incorrect. Maybe it's because of multiplying wrong angles while calculating the x and y components. Please recheck and correct the answer.arrow_forward
