Question #489d0 Physics 1D Motion Displacement and Velocity 1 Answer P dilip_k Oct 1, 2016 "The net displacement " abs(vecd)=14.7km, 35^@ "South of East" "The East component this of displacement " =abs(vecd)_E=14.7cos35^@km~~12km "The South component this of displacement " =abs(vecd)_S=14.7sin35^@km=8.43km So it can be said that "The North component this of displacement " =abs(vecd)_N=-8.43km Answer link Related questions What is the difference between distance and displacement?
