Part 1 Questions (12 pts). Circle one correct answer, 1) If A > B, under what condition is |A” - B° |=A—B? A) Vectors A” and B” are in opposite directions, Vectors A” and B” are in perpendicular directions, Rove AY and B” are in the same direction. The statement is never true. E) The statement is always true. 2) IFA” and B” are nonzero vectors for which A” - BY =" |, it must follow that AJA’ x B'=0. B) [47 B°|=1. (O)\\A" x B|=AB A” is parallel to B” 3) Ifan object travels at a constant speed in a circular path, the acceleration of the object is A) in the same direction as the velocity of the object. B) smaller in magnitude the smaller the radius of the circle. Oirae in magnitude the smaller the radius of the circle, in the opposite di E) zero. ction of the velocity of the object. 4) The motions of a car and a truck along a straight road are represented by the veloc time graphs in the figure, The two vehicles are initially alongside each other at time ¢= 0. At time T, what is true about these two vehicles since time t = 0? A) The car will have traveled further than the truck. B) The car will be traveling faster than the truck. Eyre truck will have traveled further than the car. }) The truck and the car will have traveled the same distance. velocity Truck time Part 2 Problems (88 pts). Shaw all steps. 1) __A group of engineering students invent a robot that can move in a straight line only. One of the students sets the robot so that it faces directly east, and allows it to move forward by 8 m. Then the student turns the robot to face 60 degrees north of east, and allows it to move 6 m. Then she turns the robot directly north and lets it move 2m. a) Drawa sketch of the robot's movement to scale, b) Using the sketch, estimate the direction, relative to the positive x-axis, that the students need to point a second robot to rescue the first one. Assume that they are sitting at the point where the first robot started to move, ©) Also using the sketch, estimate how far the second robot needs to go to meet the first one,
