In an attempt to escape a desert island, a castaway builds a raft and sets out to sea. The wind shifts a great deal during the day, and she is blown along the following straight lines: 2.50 km and 45.0 north of west, then 4.70 km and 60.0 south of east, then 130 km and 25.0 of west, then 5.10 km due east, then 1.70 km and 5.00 east of north, then 7.20 km and 55.0 south of west, and finally 2.80 km and 10.0 north of east. Use the analytical method to find the resultant vector of all her displacement vectors. What is its magnitude and direction?

In the figure, a radar station detects an airplane approaching directly from the east. At first observation, the airplane is at distance d₁-320 m from the station and at angle 0₁ - 44° above the horizon. The airplane is tracked through an angular change A0 - 123° in the vertical east-west plane; its distance is then d₂ - 750 m.
