A persin moves 30 m north, then 20 m east and finally 30sqrt(2) m south-west. The displacement from the original position is :

Answer»

14 m south-WEST
10 m west
28 m south
15 m east

Solution :`VEC(S)=30hatj,vec(S_(2))=20hati`
`vec(S_(3))=-30sqrt(2)(cos45hati + sin45hatj)`
`vec(S)=vec(S_(1)) + vec(S_(2)) + vec(S_(3))=30hatj + 20hati -30hati-30hatj=-10 hati`

Hence RESULTANT displacement is 10 m (west).
