Students have asked these similar questions
Proceeding from landmark A, a vehicle moves along city streets 10 km north, then 14.2 km northeast, and finally 2 km south, and arrives at landmark B. What is the distance traveled, and the magnitude of the displacement between the two landmarks?
From the previous problem, what angle east of north does the displacement vector lie?
As shown in the diagram below, a soccer player kicks a ball directly toward the goal along a displacement vector r, which has a length of 7.2 m and a direction 30 degrees east of south. Alternatively, she could have kicked it
to a second player standing directly in front of the goal along a displacement r, who could have then kicked it to the goal along a displacement vector r, as shown. Find the magnitudes and directions of r, and r,
