A hiker travels 12 km in a direction of 50 degrees west of north. What are the north and west components of this displacement?
1 answer:
The north and west components of this displacement are 9.19 km and -7.71 km respectively.
<h3>
North component of the displacement</h3>
The north component of the displacement is calculated as follows;
Dy = D sinθ
Dy = 12 km x sin50
Dy = 9.19 km
<h3>West component of the displacement</h3>
Dx = D x cosθ
Dx = - 12 km x cos(50)
Dx = -7.71 km
