Figure P3.28 illustrates typical proportions of male (m) and female (f) anatomies. The displacements d1m and d1f from the soles of the feet to the navel have magnitudes of 104 cm and 64.0 cm. respectively. The displacements d2m and d2f from the navel to outstretched fingertips have magnitudes of 100 cm and 86.0 cm, respectively. Find the vector sum of these displacements d3=d1+d2 for both people.

You fly 32.0 km in a straight line in still air in the direction 35.0 south of west. (a) Find the distances you would have to fly due south and then due west to arrive at the same point. (b) Find the distances you would have to fly first in a direction 45.0south of west and then in a direction 45.0 west of north. Note these are the components of the displacement along a different set of axes-namely, the one rotated by 45 with respect to the axes in (a).
In the control tower at a regional airport, an air traffic controller monitors two aircraft as their positions change with respect to the control tower. One plane is a cargo carrier Boeing 747 and the other plane is a Douglas DC-3. The Boeing is at an altitude of 2500 m, climbing at 100 above the horizontal, and moving 30 north of west. The DC-3 is at an altitude of 3000 m, climbing at 50 above the horizontal, and cruising directly west. (a) Find the position vectors of the planes relative to the control tower. (b) What is the distance between the planes at the moment the air traffic controller makes a note about their positions?
A snow-covered ski slope makes an angle of 35.0 with the horizontal. When a ski jumper plummets onto the hill, a parcel of splashed snow is thrown up to a maximum displacement of 1.50 m at 16.0 from the vertical in the uphill direction as shown in Figure P3.16. Find the components of its maximum displacement (a) parallel to the surface and (b) perpendicular to the surface. Figure P3.16

Geese migrate along north and south directions for well over a thousand kilometers in some cases traveling speeds up to about 100 km/h. If one such bird is flying at 100km/h relative to the air but there is a 34.0 km/h wind blowing from the west to east. A.) at what angle relative to the north-south direction should this bird head so that it will be traveling directly southward relative to the ground? Express answer in degrees b.) how long will it take the bird to cover a ground distance of 500 km from north to south? ( Note: Even on cloudy nights many birds navigate using the earth's magnetic field to fix the north-south direction)
1.) Jason Renie set a world record of 77.0 m for motorcycle jump. Assume that he left the take-off ramp at 12.0° to the horizontal and that the take- off and landing heights are the same. Determine his take-off speed (in m/s). 2.) A model of a helicopter rotor has four blades, each 3.40 m long from the central shaft to the blade tip. The model is rotated in a wind tunnel at 550 rev/min. What is the radial acceleration (in m/s²) of the blade tip? 3.) A tourist in Cebu dives off a cliff with a running horizontal leap. What must her minimum horizontal speed (in m/s) be just as she leaves the cliff so that she will miss the ledge at the bottom, which is 1.75 m wide and 9.00m below the top of the cliff? 4.)
