A cab driver heads south with a steady speed of v₁ = 20.0 m/s for t₁ = 3.00 min, then makes a right turn and travels at v₂ = 25.0 m/s for t₂ = 2.00 min, and then drives northwest at v, 30.0 m/s for t= 1.00 min. For this 6.00-min trip, calculate the following. Assume +x is in the eastward direction. (a) total vector displacement (Enter the magnitude in m and the direction in degrees south of west.) 4865.54 m 28.57 magnitude direction (b) average speed (in m/s) 23.33 m/s south of west (c) average velocity (Enter the magnitude in m/s and the direction in degrees south of west.) magnitude 13.52 m/s direction 28.57 south of west
