Suppose you first walk 12.0 m in a direction 20? west of north and then 20.0 m in a direction 40.0? south of west. how far are y
Gnesinka [82]
The representation of this problem is shown in Figure 1. So our goal is to find the vector \overrightarrow{R}. From the figure we know that:

\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |=12m \\ \\ \left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |=20m \\ \\ \theta_{A}=20^{\circ} \\ \\ \theta_{B}=40^{\circ}

From geometry, we know that:

\overrightarrow{R}=\overrightarrow{A}+\overrightarrow{B}

Then using vector decomposition into components:

For \ A: \\ \\ A_x=-\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |sin\theta_A=-12sin(20^{\circ})=-4.10 \\ \\ A_y=\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |cos\theta_A=12cos(20^{\circ})=11.27 \\ \\ \\ For \ B: \\ \\ B_x=-\left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |cos\theta_B=-20cos(40^{\circ})=-15.32 \\ \\ B_y=-\left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |sin\theta_B=-20sin(40^{\circ})=-12.85

Therefore:

R_x=A_x+B_x=-4.10-15.32=-19.42m \\ \\ R_y=A_y+B_y=11.27-12.85=-1.58m

So if you want to find out <span>how far are you from your starting point you need to know the magnitude of the vector \overrightarrow{R}, that is:
</span>
\left | \overrightarrow{R} \right |=&#10;\sqrt{R_x^2+R_y^2}=\sqrt{(-19.42)^2+(-1.58)^2}=\boxed{19.48m}

Finally, let's find the <span>compass direction of a line connecting your starting point to your final position. What we are looking for here is an angle that is shown in Figure 2 which is an angle defined with respect to the positive x-axis. Therefore:

</span>\theta_R=180^{\circ}+tan^{-1}(\frac{\left | R_y \right |}{\left | R_x \right |}) \\ \\ \theta_R=180^{\circ}+tan^{-1}(\frac{1.58}{19.42}) \\ \\ \theta_R=180^{\circ}+4.65^{\circ}=185.85^{\circ}
