1. A cyclist pedals 12km[W5.0°S], stops for a quick Gatorade, then continues for another 8.3km[S11°W] until her tire goes flat. She walks to a gas station by travelling 5.5km[E25°N]. Arriving at the gas station, she realizes she started her trip 91:00 minutes ago. a. Determine the total displacement of the cyclist, using components of vectors. b. Determine the average velocity of the cyclist throughout her trip. c. Determine the average speed of the cyclist from the start, until she arrives at the gas station. 2. As a jet nears the runway at 348km/h[W30°Down], the pilot decides it may not be safe to land. She pulls up and 8.06 seconds later, the jet is heading 325km/h[W35°Up]. Determine the average acceleration of the jet, including the direction of acceleration.

1. A cyclist pedals 12km[W5.0°S], stops for a quick Gatorade, then continues for another 8.3km[S11°W]
until her tire goes flat. She walks to a gas station by travelling 5.5km[E25°N]. Arriving at the gas
station, she realizes she started her trip 91:00 minutes ago.
Determine the total displacement of the cyclist, using components of vectors.
b. Determine the average velocity of the cyclist throughout her trip.
c. Determine the average speed of the cyclist from the start, until she arrives at the gas station.
а.
2. As a jet nears the runway at 348km/h[W30°Down], the pilot decides it may not be safe to land. She
pulls up and 8.06 seconds later, the jet is heading 325km/h[W35°UP]. Determine the average
acceleration of the jet, including the direction of acceleration.
