(1 box = 1 m) Final Destination Questions: 1. What was the total distance you traveled to reach your final destination?</p><p>2. Draw a single, straight-line route from your starting point to ending point on the map (this is called the resultant vector).</p><p>3. Follow the resultant route between your starting and ending points. Using a meter stick, what is the resultant route length?</p><p>4. Calculate the x and y components of the directions that were at an angle.</p><p>Labeled sketch of vector X component Y component (include magnitude & direction) (include direction) (include direction)</p><p>5. Combine your group’s East and West directions to find your group’s overall horizontal displacement. (Show your addition/subtraction; don’t just count the boxes on the map)</p><p>6. Combine your North & South directions to find your group’s overall vertical displacement. (Show your addition/subtraction; don’t just count the boxes on the map)</p><p>7. Use your answers to 5 & 6 and your knowledge of geometry to calculate your total displacement. How does this compare to your measurement from question 3?</p><p>8. Place the directions back into the envelope and follow them in a different order. Where did you end this time?</p><p>9. What does your answer to question 8 imply about the order in which vectors are added?</p><p>10. Why is it mathematically important to compute the horizontal and vertical components for displacements that are at an angle when trying to calculate the total resultant route?
