A hiker starts at his camp and moves the following distances while exploring his surroundings: 75.0 m north, 2.50 × 102 m east, 125 m at an angle 30.0° north of east, and1.50 × 102 m south. (a) Find his resultant displacement from camp. (Take east as the positive x-direction and north as the positive y-direction.) (b) Would changes in the order in which the hiker makes the given displacements alter his final position? Explain.
