A girl delivering newspapers covers her route by traveling 3.00 blocks west, 4.00 blocks north, and then 6.00 blocks east. (a) What is her final position relative to her starting location? (b) What is the length of the path she walked?
(a) Repeat the problem two problems prior, but for the second leg you walk 20.0 m in a direction 40.0° north of east (which is equivalent to subtracting B from A that is, to finding R=AB ). (b) Repeat the problem two problems prior, but now you first walk 20.0 m in a direction 40.0° south of west and then 12.0 m in a direction 20.0° east of south (which is equivalent to subtracting A from B that is, to finding R=BA=R ). Show that this is the case.
Two birds begin next to each other and then fly through the air at the same elevation above level ground at 22.5 m/s. One flies northeast, and the other flies northwest. After flying for 10.5 s, what is the distance between them? Ignore the curvature of the Earth.
The same vectors that are shown in Figure P3.6 are shown in Figure P3.42. The magnitudes are F1 = 1.90f, F2 = f, and F3 = 1.4f, where f is a constant. a. Use the coordinate system shown in Figure P3.42 to find R=F1+F2+F3 in component form in terms of f. b. If Rx = 0.33, what is Ry? c. Check your result by comparing your answer to that of Problem 6.
