Question
An unsuspecting bird is coasting along in an easterly direction at 3.00 mph when a strong wind from the south imparts a constant
acceleration of 0.300 m/s². If the wind's acceleration lasts for 2.50 s, find the magnitude r and direction (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.

0=
Now, assume the same bird is moving along again at 3.00 mph in an easterly direction, but this time, the acceleration given by
the wind is at a = 48.0° angle to the original direction of motion, measured counterclockwise from the easterly direction. If
the magnitude of the acceleration is 0.500 m/s², find the displacement vector and the angle of the displacement 0₁.
Enter the components of the vector, r, and ry, and the angle. Assume the time interval is still 2.50 s.
