The correct Answer is:
To find the net displacement of the car, we will break down its movement into vector components and then sum them up. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the movements and their vectors 1. The car moves **40 m due east**. In vector form, this is represented as: \[ \vec{A} = 40 \hat{i} \] where \(\hat{i}\) represents the east direction (positive x-axis). 2. Next, the car moves **30 m north**. In vector form, this is: \[ \vec{B} = 30 \hat{j} \] where \(\hat{j}\) represents the north direction (positive y-axis). 3. Finally, the car turns **45 degrees east of north** and moves **20√2 m**. We need to break this movement into its x and y components: - The x-component (east) is given by: \[ \vec{C_x} = 20\sqrt{2} \cos(45^\circ) = 20\sqrt{2} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = 20 \] - The y-component (north) is given by: \[ \vec{C_y} = 20\sqrt{2} \sin(45^\circ) = 20\sqrt{2} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = 20 \] Therefore, the vector for this movement is: \[ \vec{C} = 20 \hat{i} + 20 \hat{j} \] ### Step 2: Sum the vectors Now we will sum all the vectors: \[ \vec{R} = \vec{A} + \vec{B} + \vec{C} \] Substituting the values: \[ \vec{R} = (40 \hat{i}) + (30 \hat{j}) + (20 \hat{i} + 20 \hat{j}) \] Combining like terms: \[ \vec{R} = (40 + 20) \hat{i} + (30 + 20) \hat{j} = 60 \hat{i} + 50 \hat{j} \] ### Step 3: Final Result The net displacement of the car is: \[ \vec{R} = 60 \hat{i} + 50 \hat{j} \]

To find the net displacement of the car, we will break down its movement into vector components and then sum them up. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the movements and their vectors 1. The car moves **40 m due east**. In vector form, this is represented as: \[ \vec{A} = 40 \hat{i} \] where \(\hat{i}\) represents the east direction (positive x-axis). ...
