Answer:
Magnitude of displacement = 2.07 km
Magnitude of average velocity = 1.17 kmph
Explanation:
Let east represent positive x axis and north represent positive y axis.
A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 1.93 km due east, 1.03 km due south, and 3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north of west.
1.93 km due wast
s ₁ = 1.93 i km
1.03 km due south
s₂ = -1.03 j km
3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north of west
s₃ = -3.84 cos 52.8 i + 3.84 sin 52.8 j = -2.32 i + 3.06 j km
Total displacement
s = s ₁+ s₂+ s₃ = 1.93 i - 1.03 j -2.32 i + 3.06 j = -0.39 i + 2.03 j
Magnitude of displacement,
Time taken = 1.771 hour
Magnitude of average velocity,
