Problem

Starting from (3 m, −2 m)(3\,\text{m},\,-2\,\text{m}), a particle undergoes three successive displacements: 1. 6 m6\,\text{m} at 45∘45^{\circ} above the x-axis, 2. 4 m4\,\text{m} at 315∘315^{\circ} (i.e., 45∘45^{\circ} below the x-axis), 3. 5 m5\,\text{m} directly downward along the negative y-axis. Determine its final coordinates. a) (10.1 m, −0.6 m)(10.1\,\text{m},\,-0.6\,\text{m}) b) (10.1 m, −5.6 m)(10.1\,\text{m},\,-5.6\,\text{m}) c) (4.4 m, −5.6 m)(4.4\,\text{m},\,-5.6\,\text{m}) d) (8.8 m, −6.8 m)(8.8\,\text{m},\,-6.8\,\text{m})
