The layout of the town of Popperville is a perfectly square grid, with blocks 100 feet long (Fig. P3.8). A cat leaves her house and travels to Mike Mulligans place 4 blocks west and 3 blocks north of its starting point. After lapping up the milk that Mike always leaves out, the cat travels an additional 1 block north and 3 blocks east to Mrs. McGillicuttys house. a. On your paper, carefully copy the grid of streets that contains the cats house, Mike Mulligans house, and Mrs. McGillicuttys house. Then draw and label three displacement vectors on your sketch: r1, the cats displacement from her house to Mike Mulligans; r2, the cats displacement from Mike Mulligans to Mrs. McGillicuttys; and rtot, the cats total displacement. b. Write an equation to relate the three displacement vectors you have drawn. c. Is the distance the cat traveled greater than, less than, or equal to the magnitude of the cats total displacement vector? Explain. FIGURE P3.8
The distance between two cities is 100 mi. What is the number of kilometers between the two cities? (a) smaller than 100 (b) larger than 100 (c) equal to 100
A surveyor measures the distance across a river that flows straight north by the following method. Starting directly across from a tree on the opposite bank, the surveyor walks 100 m along the river to establish a baseline. She then sights across to the tree and reads that the angle from the baseline to the tree is 35 . How wide is the river?
Carolyn rides her bike 40.0 south of west for 5.40 miles as illustrated in Figure P3.25. What is the distance she would have to ride due south and due west to reach the same location?
A map suggests that Atlanta is 730 miles in a direction of 5.00 north of cast from Dallas. The same map slum's that Chicago is 560 miles in a direction of 21.0 west of north from Atlanta. Figure P3.24 shows the locations of these three cities. Modeling the Earth as flat, use this information to find the displacement from Dallas 10 Chicago.
A roller-coaster car moves 200 ft horizontally and then rises 135 ft at an angle of 30.0 above the horizontal. It next travels 135 ft at an angle of 40.0 downward. What is its displacement from its starting point? Use graphical techniques.
A pedestrian walks 6.0 km east and then 13.0 km north. Use a graphical method to find the pedestrian’s resultant displacement and geographic direction.
A trapper walks a 5.0-lan straight-line distance from her cabin to the lake, as shown in the following figure. Determine the east and north components of her displacement vector. How many more kilometers would she have to walk if she walked along the component displacements? What is her displacement vector?
Your instructor purchases a drone. He gets out of the roof of a building and flies the drone 140 meters straight west in 30 seconds, and then flies it 260 meters straight south for 120 seconds. He lets it hover stationary for 20 seconds, then flies it another 70 meters straight north in a span of 15 seconds, and finally 50 meters straight west in 12 seconds. 9. Calculate the net displacement from start and report this as a single magnitude and clearly identified direction. 10. What is the magnitude of the helicopter drone's average velocity over this entire excursion?
