A room has dimensions . A fly starting at one corner flies around, ending up at the diagonally opposite corner. (a) What is the magnitude of its displacement? (b) Could the length of its path be less than this magnitude? (c) Greater? (d) Equal? (e) Choose a suitable coordinate system and express the components of the displacement vector in that system in unit-vector notation. (f) If the fly walks, what is the length of the shortest path? (Hint: This can be answered without calculus. The room is like a box. Unfold its walls to flatten them into a plane.)
An ant crazed by the sun on a hot Texas afternoon, darts over aplane scratched in the dirt. The and component of four executive darts are the following. All in centimetres:The overall displacement of the four darts has thecomponents. What are a)and b)? What are c) magnitude and d) angle (relative to the positive direction of theaxis) of the overall displacement?
What are (a) the x component and (b) the y component of a vectorin the xyplane if its direction iscounterclockwise from the positive direction of the x axis and its magnitude is 7.3 m?
A wheel with a radius of 45.0 cmrolls without slipping along a horizontal floor (Fig). At time t, the dot P painted on the rim of the wheel is at the point of contact between the wheel and the floor. At a later time t2, the wheel has rolled through one-half of a revolution. What are (a) the magnitude and (b) the angle (relative to the floor) of the displacement of P?
