While driving through the city, you drive 3 blocks south, 5 blocks east, 5 blocks north, 7 blocks east, 4 blocks south, 2 blocks east, and 2 blocks north. What is your total displacement? What is the total distance traveled? 14 blocks 28 blocks
8
Which vectors have the same direction? Which vectors have the same magnitude? Which vectors are identical? A, HB, FD, EC, I A, B, D, HC, G, IE, F A, HC, I
9
Multiplying and Dividing by a Scalar
10
Adding Vectors
11
Subtracting Vectors – “Add negative”
12
Subtracting Vectors – “Fork”
13
Trig Review a=4 b=3 Pythagorean Theorem Angles c θ
14
x y Resultant Vectors A=7 cm B=5 cm Magnitude Direction θ R
16
While following a treasure map, a pirate walks 7.50 m east and then turns and walks 45.0 m south. What single straight-line displacement could the pirate have taken to reach the treasure? x y θ 45.0 m 7.50 m R

x y θ 1500 km A plane flew 25.0° west of south for 1500 km. How far would it have traveled if it flew due west and then due south to get to its destination?
21
Adding Non-perpendicular Vectors Break down each vector into its x- and y- components Add all of the x-components Add all of the y-components Calculate the resultant vector

A pilot’s planned course is to fly at 150 km/hr at 30° SW. If the pilot meets a 25 km/hr wind due east, how fast does the plane travel, and in what direction? x y θ plane wind x y plane wind total x y θ
