Hey
I'm new to this forum and I have a question on my homework if anyone could help that would be very cool:) Ok here is the problem
A mountain climbing expedition establishes a base camp and two intermediate camps, A and B. Camp A is 11,200m east of and 3200m above base camp. Camp B is 8400m east of and 1700m higher than Camp A. Determine the displacement between base Camp B.
We are supposed to solve and sketch a diagram for it. What I did was did a I made a point for base camp and a point for camp A and then did a resultant vector thing. Then I took the point A and then made a triangle with point B (resultant vector thingy again) and then did pathagarian theorum on them and then added the two together. I don't know if I did it right the #s came out really big...
