The largest variety of grasshopper in the world is found in Malaysia.These grasshoppers can measure almost a foot (0.305 m) in length and can jump 4.5 m.Suppose one of these grasshoppers starts at the origin of a coordinate system and makes exactly eight jumps in a straight line that makes an angle of 35° with the positive x-axis. Find the grasshopper displacement along the x- and y-axis. Assume both component displacements to be positive.
