Moving in Two Dimensions  In physics, displacement, which is a
change in position, has a magnitude and a direction associated
with it. When you have a change of position in a particular
direction and of a particular distance, these are given by the
magnitude and direction of the displacement vector.  Instead of
writing displacement as s, you should write it as s, a vector
(if you’re writing on paper, you can put an arrow over the s to
signify its vector status). When you’re talking about
displacement in the real world, direction is as important as
distance.  For example, say your dreams have come true: You’re a
big-time baseball or softball hero, slugging another line drive
into the outfield. You take off for first base, which is 90 feet
away. But 90 feet in wh
