Answer:
A) R = (200 i ^ + 100 j ^ + 30k ^) m
, B) L = 223.61 m
, C) R = 225.61 m
Explanation:
Part A
This is a vector summing exercise, let's take a Reference System where the z axis corresponds to the height (flights), the x axis is the East - West and the y axis corresponds to the North - South.
Let's write the displacements
Descending from the apartment
10 flights of 3 m each, the total descent is 30 m
Z = 30 k ^ m
Offset at street level
L1 = 0.2 i ^ km
L2 = 0.1 j ^ km
Let's reduce everything to the SI system
L1 = 0.2 * 1000 = 200 i ^ m
L2 = 100 j ^ m
The distance traveled is
R = (200 i ^ + 100 j ^ + 30k ^) m
Part B
The horizontal distance traveled can be found with the Pythagorean theorem for the coordinates in the plane
L² = x² + y²
L = √ (200² + 100²)
L = 223.61 m
Part C
The magnitude of travel, let's use the Pythagorean theorem for the sum
R² = x² + y² + z²
R = √ (30² + 200² + 100²)
R = 225.61 m
Recall that

which follows from the definition for average acceleration. So Lucifer has a final velocity of

Answer:
The geosphere consists of the solid Earth and the atmosphere consists of the gaseous components in the air. Thus, the answer is C.

Explanation:
The equation fo potential energy is PE = mgh, where m is the mass of the ball, g is the pull of gravity (constant at 9.8), and h is the max height of the ball. What we do not have here is that height. We need to first solve for it using one-dimensional equations. What we have to know above all else, is that the final velocity of an object at its max height is always 0. That allows us to use the equation
where vf is the final velocity and v0 is the initial velocity. We will find out how long it takes for the object to reach that max height first and then use that time to find out what that max height is. Baby steps here...
0 = 21.5 + (-9.8)t and
-21.5 = -9.8t so
t = 2.19 seconds (Keep in mind that if I used the rules correctly for sig fig's, the answer you SHOULD get is not one shown, so I had to adjust the sig fig's and break the rules. But you know what they say about rules...)
Now we will use that time to find out the max height of the object in the equation
Δx =
and filling in:
Δx =
which simplifies down a bit to
Δx = 47.1 - 23.5 so
Δx = 23.6 meters.
Now we can plug that in to the PE equation to find the PE of the object:
PE = (.19)(9.8)(23.6) so
PE = 43.9 J
