2. On a clear sunny day, you decided to roam around. You walk 200,0 m southeast, then run north for 300.0 m. You then decided to walk for 50.0 m in the direction 30° west of north. Out of confusion, you went south for 80.0 m, and turns 23° west of south for 150.0 m. Find (a) the scalar components of cach of your routes and (b) the magnitude and direction of the resultant vector.

3. You fly 32.0 km in a straight line in still alr in the direction 35° south of west. (a) Find the distances you would have to point. (This determination is equivalent to finding the components of the displacement along the south and west directions.) (b) Find the distances you would have to fly first in a direction 45.0° south of west and then in a direction 45.0° west of north. These are the components of the displacement along a different set of axes-one rotated 45°. straight south and then straight west to arrive at the same 4.

one day you go hiking at a nearby nature preserve. at first, you follow the straight, clearly marked trails. from your starting point, you travel 2.00 miles down the 1st trail. then you turn to your left by 30.0 degrees to follow a 2nd trail for 1.40 miles. next, you turn to your right by 160 degrees and follow a third trail for 1.90 miles. at this point you are getting very tired and would like to go back. you would like to take a shortcut directly through the woods. how far to your right should you turn, and how far do you have to walk, to go directly back to the darting point. what degree turn to the right must "I" take, and how many miles must I walk back? I know the distance is 2.104 miles, but I cannot figure out the degree angle.
