Expert Solution

a)A displacement vector with an x component of +9.1 m and a y component of -9.5 m.

Magnitude of displacement

X-componet of displacement is positive and Y-component is negative, so the displacment vector lies in 4th qudrant.

Angle of displacment counter clockwise from positive X-axis.

Magnitude:

Angle:

b)
(b) A velocity vector with an x component of -98 m/s and a y component of +38 m/s.

Magnitude of displacement

X-componet of velocity is negative and Y-component is positive, so the velocity vector lies in 2nd qudrant.

Angle of displacment counter clockwise from positive X-axis.
