Problem: A passenger on a moving train walks at a speed of 1.60 m/s due north relative to the train. The passenger's speed with respect to the ground is 4.5 m/s at an angle of 30.0Â° west of north.

Part A: What are the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the train relative to the ground?

If possible just a brief explanation how you got the answer?
