Answer:
2 /s north
Explanation:
Given that,
Velocity due North is 8 m/s and due south is 6 m/s
We need to find the magnitude and the direction of the resulting velocity.
Let North is positive and South is negative. When two velocities are in opposite direction, they adds up. So,
[tex]v=8+(-6)\\\\v=2\ m/s[/tex]
It is positive. So, it is in North direction.
