Figure P3.28 illustrates typical proportions of male (m) and female (f) anatomies. The displacements d1m and d1f from the soles of the feet to the navel have magnitudes of 104 cm and 64.0 cm. respectively. The displacements d2m and d2f from the navel to outstretched fingertips have magnitudes of 100 cm and 86.0 cm, respectively. Find the vector sum of these displacements d3=d1+d2 for both people.

While exploring a cave, a spelunker starts at the entrance and moves the following distances: 100 m east, 300 m south, 150 m at an angle 30˚ south of west, and 200 m 60˚ north of west. What is the displacement (magnitude and direction) from the cave entrance?
A player on a soccer field walks 100 meters to the East, turns North and walks 150 meters, turns West and Walks 100 meters, and finally turns south and ONLY WALKS 100 meters. What is the TOTAL DISTANCE TRAVELED and what is the TOTAL DISPLACEMENT? Total Distance is 200 meters & the Total Displacement is 450 meters east. Total Distance is 350 meters & the Total Displacement is 74 meters. Total Distance is 25 meters & the Total Displacement is 100 meters to the east. Total Distance is 450 meters to the west & the Total Displacement is 50 meters to the NORTH. None of the above.
Danny takes his dog to the local dog park every morning, as well (dog-walking is very popular in this area). He walks with his dog 6 blocks east, 6 blocks north, and 6 west in order to get to the park. If each block is 50 meters, what distance did Danny travel in meters? Answer: m
I have no idea to how to start to this question: Wags (a dog) decides to go on a journey. He begins his journey by traveling 58 meters in a direction directly south. He then runs 100.0 meters in a direction 30◦north of west. During the last leg of his journey, he follows a scent for 59 meters in a direction 30◦east of north. What distance does Wags end up from his initial startingpoint?
