You walk 1300m east and then 880m south in a total time of 16min .

Compute your displacement.
Enter the east and south components of the displacement separated by a comma.

Compute your average velocity in m/s.
Enter the east and south components of the velocity separated by a comma.

I tried, what i saw in a previous example. didn't work:

1300/(16*60)=
880/(16*60)=

a. X = 1300 m.
Y = -880 m.

Tan A = Y/X = -880/1300 = -0.67692
A = -34.1o CW = 325.9o CCW.

D = X/Cos A = 1300/Cos(-34.1) = 1570 m.
[325.9o].

D(1300, -880).

b. T = 13min * 60s/min. = 780 s.

Vavg = (1300+880)m/780s. = 2.79 m/s.
