A football player runs for a distance di = 7.29 m in 1.4 s, at an angle of 0= 56 degrees to the 50-yard line, then turns left and runs a distance d; = 10.21 m in 1.94 s, in a direction perpendicular to the 50-yard line. The diagram shows these two displacements relative to an x-y coordinate system, where the x axis is parallel to the 50-yard line, and they axis is perpendicular to the 50-yard line.

It takes a golfer a total of three strokes to put the ball in the hole. The displacements of the three strokes are as follows: d, = 4.20 m the north, d, = 2.10 m northeast, and d, = 1.10 m at 6 = 30.0° west of south, as shown in the figure. If the golfer had made the hole in a single shot, what would be the displacement of the ball? (Assume the positive y- and x-axes are in the north and east directions, respectively. Give the magnitude of your answer in meters and the direction in degrees north of east.) N dz dz W- E 'p magnitude m direction o north of east
At a football game, imagine the line of scrimmage is the y-axis. A player, starting at the y-axis, runs 8.50 yards, back (in the −x-direction), then 15.0 yards parallel to the y-axis (in the −y-direction). He then throws the football straight downfield 55.0 yards in a direction perpendicular to the y-axis (in the +x-direction). What is the magnitude of the displacement (in yards) of the ball? yards (b) What if? The receiver that catches the football travels 64.0 additional yards at an angle of 45.0° counterclockwise from the +x-axis away from the quarterback's position and scores a touchdown. What is the magnitude of the football's total displacement (in yards) from where the quarterback took the ball to the end of the receiver's run?

An unsuspecting bird is coasting along in an easterly direction at 1.00 mph when a strong wind from the south imparts a constant acceleration of 0.500 m/s². If the wind's acceleration lasts for 2.50 s, find the magnitude r and direction 0 (measured counterclockwise from the easterly direction) of the bird's displacement over this time interval. Assume that the bird is originally travelling in the +x direction and that there are 1609 m in 1 mi. r = = Now, assume the same bird is moving along again at 1.00 mph in an easterly direction, but this time, the acceleration given by the wind is at a o = 30.0° angle to the original direction of motion, measured counterclockwise from the easterly direction. If the magnitude of the acceleration is 0.600 m/s², find the displacement vector 7 and the angle of the displacement 01. Enter the comnonents of the vector, r. and r.. and the angle. Assume the time interval is still 2.50 s.
