Typical backyard ants often create a network of chemical trails for guidance. Extending outward from the nest, a trail branches (bifurcates) repeatedly, withbetween the branches. If a roaming ant chances upon a trail, it can tell the way to the nest at any branch point: If it is moving away from the nest, it has two choices of path requiring a small turn in its travel direction, eitherleftwardor rightward. If it is moving toward the nest, it has only one such choice. Figure 3-29shows a typical ant trail, with lettered straight sections of 20 cmlength and symmetric bifurcation of. Path v is parallel to the y axis. What are the (a) magnitude and (b) angle (relative to the positive direction of the superimposed x axis) ofan ant鈥檚 displacement from the nest (find it in the figure) if the ant enters the trail at point A? What are the (c) magnitude and (d) angle if it enters at point B?

In the sum vector has a magnitude of 12.0 m and is angled counterclockwise from the +x direction, and vector has a magnitude of 15.0 m and is angled counterclockwise from the -x direction. What are (a) the magnitude and (b) the angle (relative to +x ) of ?
A sailboat sets out from the U.S. side of Lake Erie for a point on the Canadian side,90.0 km due north. The sailor, however, ends up 50.0 kmdue east of the starting point. (a) How far and (b) in what direction must the sailor now sail to reach the original destination?
Find the (a), (b), and (c)components of the sum of the displacements and whose components in meters are
A man goes for a walk, starting from the origin of an xyz coordinate system, with the xy plane horizontal and the x axis eastward. Carrying a bad penny, he walkseast,north, and then drops the penny from a cliff high. (a) In unit-vector notation, what is the displacement of the penny from start to its landing point? (b) When the man returns to the origin, what is the magnitude of his displacement for the return trip?
