Homework Statement
A novice golfer on the green takes three strokes to sink the ball. The successive displacements of the ball are 4.00 m to the north, 2.00 m northeast, and 1.00 m at 30.0° west of south (Fig. P3.21). Starting at the same initial point, an expert golfer could make the hole in what single displacement?
Homework Equations
R= A+B
R=Sqrt(Rx2+Ry2)
The Attempt at a Solution
