Three players on a reality TV show are brought to the center of a large, flat field. Each is given ameter stick, a compass, a calculator, a shovel, and (in a different order for each contestant) thefollowing three displacements:72.4 m, 32.0° east of north57.3 m, 36.0° south of west17.8 m straight southThe three displacements lead to the point where the keys to a new Porsche (car) are buried. Twoplayers start measuring immediately, but the winner first calculates where to go. What does shecalculate?y (north)36.0057.3 m72.4m17.8 m c32.00x (cast)

It takes a golfer three strokes to get a golf ball into a hole. On the first hit, the ball moves 6.0 m to the east. On the second hit, it moves 2.9 m at an angle of 20 ° north of east. On the third hit, it moves 0.50 m to the north. If the golfer had struck the ball directly into the hole in one stroke, what would have been the magnitude (in m) and the direction of the ball's displacement? Indicate direction as a positive angle measured counterclockwise from east.
