B4 the tackle:
<span>The linebacker's momentum = 115 x 8.5 = 977.5 kg m/s north </span>
<span>and the halfback's momentum = 89 x 6.7 = 596.3 kg m/s east </span>
<span>After the tackle they move together with a momentum equal to the vector sum of their separate momentums b4 the tackle </span>
<span>The vector triangle is right angled: </span>
<span>magnitude of final momentum = √(977.5² + 596.3²) = 1145.034 kg m/s </span>
<span>so (115 + 89)v(f) = 1145.034 ←←[b/c p = mv] </span>
<span>v(f) = 5.6 m/s (to 2 sig figs) </span>
<span>direction of v(f) is the same as the direction of the final momentum </span>
<span>so direction of v(f) = arctan (596.3 / 977.5) = N 31° E (to 2 sig figs) </span>
<span>so the velocity of the two players after the tackle is 5.6 m/s in the direction N 31° E </span>
<span>btw ... The direction can be given heaps of different ways ... N 31° E is probably the easiest way to express it when using the vector triangle to find it</span>

Answer:
130 km at 35.38 degrees north of east
Explanation:
Suppose the HQ is at the origin (x = 0, y = 0)
So the coordinates of the helicopter after the 1st flight is


After the 2nd flight its coordinate would be:


So in order to fly back to its HQ it must fly a distance and direction of
north of east
20/9.8 = 2.0 seconds. The ball stops after 2 seconds.
