TITLE: "MEASUREMENTS AND VECTORS"

Learning Objectives:
1.) Convert quantities to another required units.
2.) Illustrate conversion factor by scaling given quantities.
3.) Differentiate vector and scalar quantities.
4.) Solve problems involving vectors with systematic diagram and by its components.

Materials Needed for the Activity:

NVSU-Bambang Map Bond paper
Triangles Ballpen/Pencil
Ruler Scientific Calculator
Protractor

Instructions:
Draw the given NVSU-Bambang Campus Map with gridlines.
Answer the following questions as precisely and concisely as you can with the following format:
a.) Question
b.) Governing principle or equations to be used.
c.) Experimentation procedure/ solution
d.) Interpretation of the results
e.) Conclusion

Questions:
1.) Assessment is ongoing and you are at the BSEE1 classroom (origin), after assessment you have
decided to go at the University's Cashier office to pay for the required fees.
>10pts What is your resulting Resultant Displacement and the corresponding angle.
>10pts Breakdown the resultant vector into its x-component and y-component.

2.) A drone is flown from the origin with the corresponding flight path of 100 meters East,
350 feet 40 degrees North of East, 0.1 mile 20 degrees West of North, 5900 inches
60 degrees South of East, and finally 40 meters South.
>10pts Locate the exact position of the drone. (Example: Gymnasium stage/ Engineering Faculty Office)
>10pts What is the drone's resulting Resultant Displacement and the corresponding angle.
>10pts Breakdown the resultant vector into its x-component and y-component.
>10pts If the drones average speed is 5miles per hour, what is the time it takes to fo to its
final destination?
>10pts If the drone will take the shortest path back to its origin, how long it will now take?

3.) >20pts
Make your own directional vector path going to the Oval Meetup, direction must
obey traffic rules and human logic. (Ex. No going through walls)

4.) >10pts Presentation of paper!
