A pirate has buried his treasure on an island with five trees located at the points (30.0 m, 20.0 m), (60.0 m, 80.0 m), (10.0 m, 10.0 m), (40.0 m, 30.0 m), and (70.0 m, 60.0 m), all measured relative to some origin, as shown in Figure P1.69. His ships log instructs you to start at tree A and move toward tree B, but to cover only one-half the distance between A and B. Then move toward tree C, covering one-third the distance between your current location and C. Next move toward tree D, covering one-fourth the distance between where you are and D. Finally move toward tree E, covering one-fifth the distance between you and E, stop, and dig. (a) Assume you have correctly determined the order in which the pirate labeled the trees as A, B, C, D, and E as shown in the figure. What are the coordinates of the point where his treasure is buried? (b) What If? What if you do not really know the way the pirate labeled the trees? What would happen to the answer if you rearranged the order of the trees, for instance, to B (30 m, 20 m), A (60 m, 80 m), E (10 m, 10 m), C (40 m, 30 m), and D (70 m, 60 m)? State reasoning to show that the answer does not depend on the order in which the trees are labeled. Figure 1.69

A courier is delivering a 5 kg package to an office high in a tall building. (a) What upwards force does the courier apply to the pack- age when carrying it horizontally at a constant velocity of 2 m s−1 into the building? (b) The courier uses the elevator to reach the office. While the elevator (containing the courier who is holding the package) is accelerating upwards at 0.11 m s−2 what upwards force is the courier applying to the package? (c) When the elevator is traveling upwards at a constant speed of 6 m s−1 what upwards force does the courier apply to the package?

A railroad car which has a mass 9216 kg is constrained to move along a horizontal track under the action of a wind blowing in the direction of the track. The frictional resistance to the car motion is 1/200 of its weight. The force exerted by wind is P=kSu2, where S is the area of the backside of the railroad car, equals to 6 m2, and u is the velocity of the wind relative to car, k=0.12.
