Answer:
Explanation:
Coordinate system is one that describe the location of an object in a given plane. It implies the use of axes (coordinates) and points.
Given that the man in the question walks 400 m due north of east. The cardinal points can be used in this case, with the north and east cardinals as the required axis.
scale = [tex]\frac{length on drawing}{original length}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{10}{400}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{40}[/tex]
scale = 1:40
This is a reduced scale which implies that 1 cm on the drawing is equal to 40 m on the original length.
The man's direction is [tex]45^{o}[/tex] north of east.
The graphical drawing of the vector is herewith attached to this answer.
