(Solved): Suppose you first walk 7.5 m in a direction 20.0\deg west of north and then 17.5 m in a direction 4 ...
Suppose you first walk 7.5 m in a direction
20.0\deg west of north and then 17.5 m in a direction
40.0\deg south of west. Part (a)
✓How far are you from your starting point in meters?
R=16.53m
✓Correct! Part (b) What is the angle, in degrees, of the compass direction of a line connecting your starting point to your final position measured south of west?
\theta =14.70\deg ,Correct!
\theta =14.70\deg Part (c)
✓Repeat part (a), but for the magnitude of the displacement in meters for the second leg where you walk 17.5 m in a direction
40.0\deg north of east.
R=21.24m,✓Correct! Part (d) Repeat part (a), but now you first walk 7.5 m in a direction
40.0\deg south of west and then 17.5 m in a direction
20.0\deg east of south.
