Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

A man is lost in a thick forest. Confused and clueless as to what direction to take, he walks a certain distance and then turns and walks a certain distance again, and then turns and walks a certain distance. After his last step, he notices that he has just reached the point where he has started. If his first two displacements are respectively 5.0 m, 25 degrees North of East and 24.0 m, 30 degrees West of North, what is his third displacement?
