Question
I walk 450 steps at 25 degrees SE Then 750 steps at 72 degrees NW Lastly 700 steps at 15 degrees SW What it’s my orientation ? How many steps to return to starting point ? Please use the equations provided
**Equations:**

**Vector components, standard Cartesian plane:**
- \( V_x = V \cos \theta \)
- \( V_y = V \sin \theta \)
- \( V_x^2 + V_y^2 = V^2 \)
- \( \tan \theta = V_y/V_x \)

**Constant linear acceleration:**
- \( v = v_0 + at \)
- \( d = d_0 + v_0 t + \frac{1}{2} at^2 \)
- \( v^2 = v_0^2 + 2a(d - d_0) \)

**Projectile motion:**
- \( x = x_0 + v_{0x} t \)
- \( y = y_0 + v_{0y} t - \frac{1}{2} gt^2 \)
- \( v_y = v_{0y} - gt \)

**Rotational motion: \( 360^\circ = 2\pi \) radians**
- \( \theta = s/r \)
- \( \omega = v/r \)
- \( \alpha = a_T/r \)
- \( a_c = v^2/r = r\omega^2 \)
- \( \omega = \omega_0 + \alpha t \)
- \( \theta = \theta_0 + \omega_0 t + \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2 \)
- \( \omega^2 = \omega_0^2 + 2\alpha (\theta - \theta_0) \)

**Newton’s Second Law of motion:**
- \( \Sigma \vec{F} = m \vec{a} \)

**Gravitational force, or weight:**
- \( F_g = mg \)

**Frictional force:**
- \( F_f = \mu F_n \)

**Centripetal force:**
- \( F_c = mv^2/r \)

**Use \( g = 10.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) for the acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the Earth.**
