Q. A novice golfer on the green takes three strokes to sink the ball. The successive displacements of the ball are 4.00 m to the north, 2.00 m northeast, and 0.90 m at 35.0° west of south. Starting at the same initial point, an expert golfer could make the hole in what single displacement?

Q. A 0.100 kg meterstick is supported at its 40.0cm mark by a string attached to the ceiling. A 0.700 kg mass hangs vertically from the 5.00 cm mark. A mass is attached somewhere on the meterstick to keep it horizontal and in both rotational and translational equilibrium. If the force applied by the string attaching the meterstick to the ceiling is 19.6 N, determine the point where the mass attaches to the stick.
