Question
Q5: A) A mountain climbing expedition establishes a base camp and two intermediate
camps, A and B. Camp A is 11500 m east of and 3300 m above base camp. Camp B is
8700 m east of Camp A and 1800 m higher than Camp A. Determine the displacement
and the direction between base camp and Camp B.
B) A box having a square base, rectangle sides and an open-top is to contain 0.03 cubic
meter. What should its dimensions be so that the material to make it will be a minimum?
