A bus driver heads south with a steady speed of v₁ = 24.0 m/s for t₁ = 3.00 min, then makes a right turn and travels at v₂ = 25.0 m/s for t₂ = 2.20 min, and then drives northwest at v3 = 30.0 m/s for t= 1.00 min. For this 6.20-min trip, calculate the following. Assume +x is in the eastward direction. (a) total vector displacement (Enter the magnitude in m and the direction in degrees south of west.) m magnitude direction (b) average speed (in m/s) m/s south of west (c) average velocity (Enter the magnitude in m/s and the direction in degrees south of west.) magnitude m/s direction south of west
