<h2>a) Displacement of penny = 1300 i + 2400 j - 640 k</h2><h2>b) Magnitude of his displacement = 2729.47 m</h2>
Explanation:
a) He walks 1300 m east, 2400 m north, and then drops the penny from a cliff 640 m high.
1300 m east = 1300 i
2400 m north = 2400 j
Drops the penny from a cliff 640 m high = -640 k
Displacement of penny = 1300 i + 2400 j - 640 k
b) Displacement of man for return trip = -1300 i - 2400 j
Magnitude of his displacement = 2729.47 m
