A lazy fish sees your fishing hook. The fish is initially located at position (3 m , –2 m) and drifts towards the fishing hook that is located at position (6 m, 0 m). The fish is a real lunker and has a mass of m = 9.1 kg. a) What is the displacement vector for the fish during this time interval? Express your answer using unit-vector notation (i.e. ->Ar = _i+ _j) (6 m, 0 m) |(3 m, -2 m)
