    58. You haven't stated a question.

    If the question was "Which of the following are vector quantities?", the answer is (a) and (f). The others are scalars (no direction).

    59. mag displacement d = √(46² + 23²) m = 51 m

    Θ = arctan(-23/46) = -27º = 27º S of E

    60. a) Distance = (1 + 0.5 + 1 + 0.5)km = 3 km

    b) speed = distance / time = 3km / 1.5h = 2 km/h

    c) displacement = 0 km east and 0 km north

    magnitude = 0 km

    d) avg velocity = 0 km/h
