Daniel takes his two dogs, Pauli the Pointer and Newton the Newfoundland, out to a field and lets them loose to exercise. Both dogs sprint away in different directions while Daniel stands still. From Daniel's point of view, Newton runs due North at 3.90m/s, but from Pauli's point of view, Newton appears to be moving at 1.50 m/s due East. What must Pauli's velocity relative to Daniel be for this to be true? Express your answer in terms of the ? and ?‑components if North is the +? direction and East is the +? direction. a) ?-component (m/s):    ?-component (m/s):   b) Express your answer as a magnitude and an angle measured counter‑clockwise from due East.
