To determine the required speed, we first need to find the total displacement from Mbale (M) to Gulu (G) by breaking down each leg of the journey into its East-West (x) and North-South (y) components. We will use the convention that East is positive x, North is positive y, and bearings are measured clockwise from North.
The components are calculated as:
x=distance×sin⁡(bearing)x = \text{distance} \times \sin(\text{bearing})
y=distance×cos⁡(bearing)y = \text{distance} \times \cos(\text{bearing})

Step 1: Calculate the components for the first leg (Mbale to Juba).
Distance d1=370 kmd_1 = 370 \text{ km}, Bearing $\theta_1 = 305^\
