The answe is one person because 1 times 150 is 150
Magnitude of the net displacement: 7.0 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the total displacement of the man, we have to resolve each displacement along the x- and y- direction.
Taking x as positive x direction and y as positive north direction:
- The first motion is 3 miles due east, so

- The second motion is 5 miles at
east of north, so:

So the components of the net displacement are

And so the magnitude of the net displacement is

So, he is 7.0 miles far from the house.

Answer:
128 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The convict has a head start of ...
distance = speed × time
distance = (8 mi/h) × (14 h) = 112 mi
That distance is being closed at a rate that is the difference between the speeds, so ...
64 mi/h -8 mi/h = 56 mi/h
The time it takes the guards to catch the convict will be ...
time = distance/speed
time = (112 mi)/(56 mi/h) = 2 h
The guards and prisoner will be at a distance from the prison of ...
distance = speed × time
distance = (64 mi/h)(2 h) = 128 mi
The convict will be caught 128 miles from the prison.
__
<em>Check</em>
The convict will run an additional (8 mi/h)(2 h) = 16 mi after the guards start pursuit. That, in addition to the 112 miles already run, will total 112+16=128 miles, the same distance the guards travel in that 2 hours.
