A: A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 0.30 km due east, 0.80 km due south, and 2.30 km in a direction 45.0° north of west. The time required for this trip is 4.00 h.

(a) Determine the magnitude and direction (relative to due west) of the bird watcher's displacement. Use kilometers and hours for distance and time, respectively.

(b) Determine the magnitude and direction (relative to due west) of the bird watcher's average velocity.

B: An airplane is flying with a velocity of 226 m/s at an angle of 30.0° with the horizontal, as the drawing shows. When the altitude of the plane is 2.1 km, a flare is released from the plane. The flare hits the target on the ground. What is the angle θ?

C: After leaving the end of a ski ramp, a ski jumper lands downhill at a point that is displaced 33 m horizontally from the end of the ramp. His velocity, just before landing, is 18.5 m/s and points in a direction 43° below the horizontal. Neglecting air resistance and any lift he experiences while airborne, find his initial velocity (magnitude and direction), when the he left the end of the ramp.

magnitude	m/s
direction	° counterclockwise from the positive x axis

A Doctor walking through town to his job hospital is a bird watcher, and records the number of storks nest he sees each year in chimneys. After 10 years he notices the number of births and stork sightings seems oddly correlated. Here are the summary statistics between births and stork nest sightings: N= 10 Xbar = 8.8 Ybar= 33.6 Sxx = 61.6 Syy = 1312.4 Sxy= 250.2 SSE= 296.1656 Test if the correlation is > 0 at the 0.5 level...

Margot is walking in a straight line from a point 40 feet due east of a statue in a park toward a point 34 feet due north of the statue. She walks at a constant speed of 4 feet per second. (a) Write parametric equations for Margot's position t seconds after she starts walking. (Round your coefficients to four decimal places as needed.) (b) Write an expression for the distance from Margot's position to the statue at time t. (Round...

Two parallel paths 20 m apart run east–west through the woods. Brooke walks east on one path at 7 km / h, while Jamail walks west on the other path at 5 km / h. If they pass each other at time t = 0 , how far apart are they 11 s later, and how fast is the distance between them changing at that moment?

I take my dogs on an afternoon walk. We leave my house, walking due East for 4 km. We then walk 3.5 km at an angle of 35 degrees West of North. Finally, we ealk 5.4 km at an angle of 15 degrees West of South. If I were to walk along a straight path that wuld take us back to my house, how far and in what direction should I walk?

20 km east plus 10 km northeast

A plane with a speed of 800.0 km/hr due east passes directly above a train traveling due southeast at 100.0 km/hr on a straight level road. The altitude of the aircraft is 10.0 km. How fast is the distance between the plane and the train increasing 45 s after the aircraft passes directly above the train?

1. Calculate the pH of a solution that is made by mixing 0.80 L of 0.30 M formic acid (HCOOH) and 0.90 L of 0.20 M sodium formate (NaHCOO). Assume volumes are additive. (Ka, HCOOH = 1.77 * 10^-4 ) 2. A 200.0 mL solution of 0.40 M ammonium chloride was titrated with 0.80M sodium hydroxide. What was the pH of the solution after 50.0 mL of the NaOH solution were added? The Kb of ammonia is 1.76 * 10^-5...

Anna Laura rides her bike. First she travels 3.5 km due east, then she takes a left turn and travels 2.5 km due north. Draw a graph illustrating the motion; be sure to choose a valid coordinate system and indicate the length scale of your axes. Draw the displacement vector x. Write the vector x include the magnitude and the direction; the direction can be an angle relative to one of your axes.
