A war airship leaves the port in Liberio and flies 175 km at 48.0" East of North and then changes direction to fly 235 km at 54.0 South of East. However because of the damage it took, it made an immediate emergency landing on a desert. When the airport sends out a rescue crew, how far and in what direction should this crew fly to go directly to the airship? Solve for the magnitude of the resultant vector Solve for the angle and specify the direction of the resultant vector.
2) A postman was driving a motorcycle 9.0 km 50° North of East, then 11.0 km, 35° South of East, and another 12.0 km, 20° North of East before coming to a stop. Due to the unstable data connection of his mobile phone, he missed the address of the receiver. Instead of taking the last route, he should have driven 9.0 km, 20° West of North. i) Draw the path that the postman have driven. ii) Determine the path that the postman should have taken to arrive at the address of the receiver (magnitude and direction). iii) Using the computed value on ii, determine the postman's displacement from his starting position.
