Take the north direction as the positive y-direction and east as positive x. The origin is still where the student starts biking. Let dN be the displacement vector corresponding to the first leg of the student's trip. Express dN in component form. Express your answer as two numbers separated by a comma (e. g., 1.0,2.0). By convention, the x component is written first.

A student bikes to school by traveling first dN = 0.800 miles north, then dW = 0.300 miles west, and finally dS = 0.100 miles south.

Immanuel Chen · Answer 1

(dN) x, (dN) y = 0

Dn = 0,1.00

Explanation:

Drawing the x and y axis and after that draw the vector of 0.8 north i. e.

+ive y-axis then draw another vector and name it as dW and similarly the third one.

NOw find their resultant that will be from

Dn = 0,1.00
