We don't know Carter, and we don't know where he is or what
he's doing, so I'm taking a big chance speculating on an answer.
I'm going to say that if Carter is pretty much just standing there,
or, let's say, lying on the ground taking a nap, then the force of
the ground acting on him is precisely exactly equal to his weight.
Displacement = (straight-line distance between the start point and end point) .
Since the road east is perpendicular to the road north,
the car drove two legs of a right triangle, and the magnitude
of its final displacement is the hypotenuse of the triangle.
Length of the hypotenuse = √ (215² + 45²)
= √ (46,225 + 2,025)
= √ 48,250
= 219.7 miles .
It'd be an unbalanced force
It's cold outside, the water vaper in your breath condenses into tiny droplets of liquid water and ice that you can see.
