Question

Starting from one point, a dog walks 25 m in a direction 60° south of west and then walks 50 m toward the south to a second point. What is the direction from the first point to the second point and its separation ?

Can this be answered with a lot of detail to help understand.

Expert Solution

Step 1

$\vec{d_{1}} = 25 m (- \cos 60^{o} \hat{i} - \sin 60^{o} \hat{j}) \vec{d_{1}} = - 12.5 \hat{i} - 21.65 \hat{j} m \vec{d_{2}} = - 50 \hat{j} m$
