Introduction For my vectors project I decided

to do 5 scenarios to travel from Swan River to Churchill, Manitoba

I chose to do this because I travel from Swan River to Churchill 3 times a year, and each time I get there a different way.

The transportations that I chose were by vehicle, plane, or train.

Resultant

Scenarios:1. Drive from Swan River to Winnipeg, MB via

Neepawa. From there, flying to Churchill, MB.2. Drive from Swan River to Dauphin, MB. From

there, taking the train to Churchill, MB.3. Drive from Swan River to The Pas, MB. Fly to

Winnipeg, MB (the airline does not fly direct to Churchill from The Pas), then continuing to Churchill, MB.

4. Drive from Swan River to The Pas, MB. Taking the train from there to Churchill, MB.

5. Driving from Swan River to Thompson, MB. Flying from there to Churchill, MB.

First Scenario

Drive from Swan River to Winnipeg, MB via Neepawa.

From there, flying to Churchill, MB.

First Scenario Continued.. Complete calculations with vectors to show the first

scenario

Second Scenario Drive from Swan River to Dauphin, MB. From there, taking the train to Churchill, MB.

Second Scenario Continued… Complete calculations with vectors to show the

second scenario

Third Scenario Drive from Swan

River to The Pas, MB.

Fly to Winnipeg, MB

(the airline does not fly direct to Churchill from The Pas)

Then continuing to Churchill, MB

Third Scenario Continued… Complete calculations with vectors to show the third

scenario

Fourth Scenario Drive from Swan

River to The Pas, MB.

Taking the train from there to Churchill, MB

Fourth Scenario Continued… Complete calculations with vectors to show the fourth

scenario

Fifth Scenario Driving from

Swan River to Thompson, MB via The Pas.

Flying from there to Churchill, MB

Fifth Scenario Continued… Complete calculations with vectors to show the fifth

scenario

Conclusion I found 5 ways to get to Churchill,

Manitoba from Swan River, Manitoba.

Each scenario contains different ways of transportation

Sources For ErrorI had to adjust a few of the scales

to make the overall scenario line up properly.

The map website that I used didn’t seem to be very accurate with a few of the measurements.
