A boy runs 40m towards east. he then walks 30m towards north. The boy again runs 50m towards north making an angle of 30° with east. What is his displacement?

The displacement is 99.82 meters.

Explanation:

To use a standard notation, we can define:

North as the positive y-axis.

East as the positive x-axis.

If the initial position of the boy is (0, 0)

Then:

"runs 40m towars the east"

The new position is (0, 0) + (40m, 0) = (40m, 0)

"he then walks 30m towards North"

The new position is: (40m, 0) + (0, 30m) = (40m, 30m)

"The boy again runs 50m towards north making an angle of 30° with East."

By making a triangle rectangle, we can find the x and y components for this motion.

Y-component = 50m*cos(30°) = 43.3m

X-component = 50m*sin(30°) = 25m

Then the new position will be:

(40m, 30m) + (43.3m, 25m) = (83.3m, 55m)

Now we want to find the total displacement, this will be equal to the distance between the final position and the initial position.

The distance between two points (ax, ay) and (bx, by) is:

D = √( (ax - bx)^2 + (ay - by)^2)

In this case we want to find the distance between the points  (83.3m, 55m) and (0, 0), this will be:

D = √( (83.3m - 0)^2 + (55m - 0)^2) = 99.82 m

The displacement is 99.82 meters.

the earths atmosphere is made up of nitrogen and oxygen. solids can turn into gasses through a process called sublimation. sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase, without passing through the intermediate liquid phase.

hope this : d
