Explanation:
The kinetic energy of an object is given in terms of its mass and object as :
An object with more mass has more kinetic energy. An object with less mass, if both objects are moving at the same speed, in opposite directions, will have less kinetic energy. The square of v will give positive number.

Answer:
d₃ = 37,729 km, θ= 5.1º North of West
Explanation:
This is a velocity addition problem, the easiest way to solve it is to decompose the velocities in a Cartesian system, the x-axis coincides with the West-East direction and the y-axis with the South-North direction
* first displacement is
d₁ₓ = 11 km
* second offset is
cos 6 = d₂ₓ / d₂
sin 6 = d_{2y} / d₂
d₂ₓ = d₂ cos 6
d_{2y} = d₂ sin 6
d₂ₓ = 6 cos 6 = 5.967 km
d_{2y} = 6 sin 6 = 0.6272 km
* third displacement is unknown
* fourth and last displacement
cos (-11) = d₄ₓ / d₄
sin (-11) = d_{4y} / d₄
d₄ₓ = d₄ cos (-11)
d_{4y} = d₄ sin (-11)
d₄ₓ = 21 cos (-11) = 20.61 km
d_{4y} = 21 sin (-11) = -4.007 km
They tell us that at the end of the tour you are back on the island, so the displacement must be zero
X axis
x = d₁ₓ + d₂ₓ + d₃ₓ + d₄ₓ
0 = 11 +5.967 + d₃ₓ + 20.61
d₃ₓ = -11 - 5.967 - 20.61
d₃ₓ = -37.577 km
Y axis
y = d_{1y} + d_{2y} + d_{3y} + d_{4y}
0 = 0 + 0.6272 + d_{3y} -4.007
d_{3y} = 4.007 - 0.6272
d_{3y} = 3.3798 km
This distance can be given in the form of module and angle
Let's use the Pythagorean theorem for the module
d₃ =
d₃ =
d₃ = 37,729 km
Let's use trigonometry for the angle
tan θ = d_{3y} / d₃ₓ
θ = tan⁻¹
θ = tan-1 (-3.3798 / 37.577)
θ = 5.1º
Since the y coordinate is positive and the x coordinate is negative, this angle is in the second quadrant, so the direction given in the form of cardinal coordinates is
θ= 5.1º North of West
