Answer:
a, b) part a and b on diagram attached
c) sf = -35 i + 20 j
35 km West and 20 km North
Explanation:
For part a and b refer to the attached co-ordinate system:
Note: unit vector i is in West/East direction and unit vector j is in North/South direction.
si = -15 i + 25 j
sf-si = -20 i - 5 j
Hence,
Mark relative position from habitat sf = si + sf/i
sf = ( -15 i + 25 j ) + ( -20 i - 5 j )
sf = -35 i + 20 j
35 km West and 20 km North
A=65 divideded by 55 plus 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Explanation:
Let's call this "certain amount" with a variable, x, (since it's not specified in the question, I will assume that the answer shall just be based on this variable).
So every additional floor will make the building sink by x, and let's make the unit cm, so x cm.
Now we know that the maximum depression is 20 cm, and it is also
x*y, where y is the number of floors.
So we have x*y=20,
therefore the number of floors is:
20/x or This is the answer
4 times as much distance to stop
