Net Displacement: Calculate x,y & r,θ
Given north is straight up on a graph (working in 2 dimensions) the first part describes a vector (A) starting at the origin and extending 4 units to the right, then vector (B) starting at (4,0) and extending six units to the right at an upward angle of 50 degrees (respective tot the x-axis)...- otirik

Net Displacement: Calculate x,y & r,θ
Summary: Figuring net displacement given the angles and distances of three vectors. You travel 4.00 miles East, followed by 5.00 miles at 50.0° N of E, followed by 6.00 miles at 20.0° S of W. What is your net displacement? Give the component form (x and y) and the polar form (r and theta). I...- otirik
