a snake crawls from a hole to find food. it starts at 8m southwest; then goes 10m 40 degrees north of west; then sensed something moving 9m south from where it is and moves to it.
a. how far and in what direction was the moving object from the hole?
b. if after realizing that the moving object was not good for food, the snake moved from it because it saw another moving thing, moved to its direction by covering a fourth displacement and is now 20m and 30 degrees east of south from the hole. what is the magnitude and direction of the fourth displacement?

- 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.

Drop a rubber ball from a height of about 2 m and try to determine how many pulse beats elapsed before it hits the ground. What was the timing problem that Galileo encountered? 2. Now measure the time it takes for the rubber ball to fall 2 m, using a watch or clock with a second hand or seconds display. Did the results improve substantially? 3. Roll the hard ball down an incline that makes an angle of about 10° with the horizontal. First use your pulse and then your watch or clock to measure the time of descent. 4.
