Explanation:

It is given that, a robot starts from a certain point and moves east for a distance of 5.0 meters, then goes north for 3.0 meters, and then turns west for 2.0 meters.

Let east is +x, west is -x north is +y.

When it moves east for a distance of 5.0 meters, it means (5,0)

When it goes north for 3.0 meters, and then turns west for 2.0 meters, it means (0,3) +(-2,0)

(a) x-y coordinates for the resultant vector is (3,3)

(b) The magnitude of the resultant vector for the robot is given by :

R=\sqrt{3^2+3^2} \\\\R=4.24\ m

Two cars travel westward along a straight highway, one at a constant velocity of 85 km/h, and the other at a constant velocity o
spayn [35]

To solve letter a:

d1 = 85t1 = 16 km, 
85t1 = 16, 
t1 = 16 / 85 = 0.1882 h = 11.29 min. 

d2 = 115t2 = 16 km, 
115t2 = 16, 
t2 = 16 / 115 = 0.139 h = 8.35 min. 

t1 - t2 = 11.29 - 8.35 = 2.94 min. 
Car #2 arrives 2.94 minutes sooner.

To solve letter b:

15 min = 1/4 h = 0.25 h. 
d1 = d2, 
115t = 85(t + 0.25), 
115t = 85t + 21.25, 
115t - 85t = 21.25, 
30t = 21.25, 
t = 21.25 / 30 = 0.71 h, 

d = 115 * 0.71 = 81.65 km.
