1. An ostrich cannot fly, but it is able to run fast. Suppose an ostrich runs east for 7.

95 s and then runs 161 m south, so that the magnitude of the ostrichs resultant displacement is 226 m. alculate the magnitude of the ostrichs east!ard component and its running speed.

2. "he pronghorn antelope, found in #orth America, is the best long distance runner among mammals. $t has been obser%ed to tra%el at an a%erage speed of more than 55 &m'h o%er a distance of 6.( &m. Suppose the antelope runs a distance of 5.( &m in a direction 11.5) north of east, turns, and then runs 1.( &m south. alculate the resultant displacement.

*. $n 1926, +ertrude ,derle of the -nited States became the first !oman to s!im across the ,nglish channel. Suppose ,derle s!am 25.2 &m east from the coast near .o%er, ,ngland, then made a 9() turn and tra%eled south for 21.* &m to a point east of alais, /rance. 0hat !as ,derles resultant displacement1

2. "he landing speed of the space shuttle Columbia is *27 &m'h. $f the shuttle is landing at an angle of 15.() !ith respect to the hori3ontal, !hat are the hori3ontal and the %ertical components of its %elocity1

5. $n 4irginia during 1992 ,lmer "rett reached a speed of *72 &m'h on his motorcycle. Suppose "rett rode north!est at this speed for 5.7 s. $f the angle bet!een east and the direction of "retts ride !as 6(.(), !hat !as "retts displacement east1 0hat !as his displacement north1

6. /or si6 !ee&s in 1992, A&ira 7atsushima, from 8apan, rode a unicycle more than *((( mi across the -nited States. Suppose 7atsushima is riding through a city. $f he tra%els 25(.( m east on one street, then turns countercloc&!ise through a 12(.() angle and proceeds 125.( m north!est along a diagonal street, !hat is his resultant displacement1

7. $n 1976, the 9oc&heed S:;71A Blackbird set the record speed for any airplane< *.5* 6 1(* &m'h. Suppose you obser%e this plane ascending at this speed. /or 2(.( s, it flies at an angle of 15.() abo%e the hori3ontal, then for another 1(.( s its angle of ascent is increased to *5.(). alculate the planes total gain in altitude, its total hori3ontal displacement, and its resultant displacement.

5. 7agnor 7ydland of #or!ay constructed a motorcycle !ith a !heelbase of about 12 cm. "he tiny %ehicle could be ridden at a ma6imum speed 11.6 &m'h. Suppose this motorcycle tra%els in the directions d1 and d2, !here d1 is *() !ith the hori3ontal =up!ard and right> and d2 is 25) !ith the %ertical =do!n and to the right>. "he net %ertical displacement is 3ero. alculate d1 and d2, and determine ho! long it ta&es the motorcycle to reach a net displacement of 2.( 6 1(2 m to the right.
