Consider east-west direction along x-axis with north being in positive x-direction.

Consider north-south direction along x-axis with north being in positive x-direction.

A = magnitude of displacement in south direction = 370 m

A_{x} = x-component of A = 0 m

A_{y} = y-component of A = - 370 m

B = magnitude of displacement in south-west direction = 410 m

B_{x} = x-component of B = - 410 Cos45 = - 289.91 m

B_{y} = y-component of B = - 410 Sin45 = - 289.91 m

C = magnitude of displacement in 28 deg east of north direction = 370 m

C_{x} = x-component of C = 370 Sin28 = 173.7 m

C_{y} = y-component of C = 370 Cos28 =  326.7 m

D_{x} = x-component of D = ?

D_{y} = y-component of D = ?

To return to starting position, the sum of individual displacements alng each axis must be zero.

A_{x} + B_{x} + C_{x} + D_{x} = 0

0 -  289.91 + 173.7 + D_{x} = 0

D_{x} = 116.21 m

A_{y} + B_{y} + C_{y} + D_{y} = 0

- 370 - 289.91 + 326.7 + D_{y} = 0

D_{y} = 333.21 m

magnitude of D is given using Pythagorean theorem as

magnitude = sqrt((D_{x})² + (D_{y})²)

magnitude = sqrt((116.21)² + (333.21)²) = 352.89 m

direction : tan⁻¹(333.21/116.21) = 70.8 deg

We will measure all angles from West, the negative x-axis and divide the journey into 3 parts:
P1 = 370y
P2 = 410cos(45)x + 410sin(45)y = 290x + 290y
P3 = 370cos(270 - 28)x + 370sin(270 - 28) = -174x - 327y

Overall displacement:
x = 290 - 174 = 116 m
y = 370 + 290 - 327 = 333 m

displacement = √(116² + 333²)
= 353 m

Direction:
tan(∅) = y/x
∅ = tan⁻¹ (333 / 116)
∅ = 70.8° from West.

A piece of driftwood moves up and down as water waves pass beneath it. However, it does not move toward the shore with the waves
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

It's A

Explanation:

As the waves progress through the medium, the particles they are made of move perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move. The particles do not move with the wave. So waves transmit energy but not matter as they progress through a medium.
