- A plane travels 4 km east and finds itself 5 km North and East of its starting point. Find the y component of the plane's motion and the angle the plane's displacement makes with the x-axis. (Please explain in steps. I know the answer, but I need help understanding how to get there. Thank you.)Vectors A treasure map shows a path from the hanging tree to walk to find the buried treasure. It reads to start at the hanging tree and north 7.5 meters. The map then says to turn and walk 9.8 meters at 30 degrees north of east, then walk south 1.4 meters, and finally walk west 38.0 meters. Once at this position, the map says to turn east and walk 14.0 more meters, then turn north and walk 12.0 more meters, and finally to turn due west and walk 6.0 meters. There you will find the treasure!(a) Being a physicist, you want to get rid of all the steps and walk right to the treasure. What is the magnitude of the displacement you would walk if you walked directly to the treasure alongthe line of the resultant?A plane flies east for 620 km, then south east for 440 km, then 53 degrees south of wrangler for 550 km.

- A pilot flies in a straight path for 1 h 30 min. She then makes a course correction, heading 10° to the right of her original course, and flies 2 h in the new direction. If she maintains a constant speed of 500 mi/h, how far is she from her starting position? (Round your answer to the nearest mile.)Ann walks 135 m north from point A to point B.
