A car is driven east for a distance of 50 km, then north for 30 km, and then in a direction 30 degrees east of north for 25 km. Sketch the vector diagram and determine a) the magnitude and b) the angle of the car's total displacement from its starting point

Answer 1

north
west--|--east
south
on your vector diagram draw a line going east(right) mark 50km the 30km north(up) for 30degrees east of north imagine a line going straight up(north) then measure 30degreese towards where east would be and make the line 25km

once you've drawn the vector diagram you should be able to work out part b
