Movement in north = 8.4 - 4.7 = 3.7 km Movement in west = 1.2 km

Total movement = sqrt(3.7 * 3.7 + 1.2 * 1.2) = 3.89km (approx)

Direction North-West asin(1.2/3.7) = 18.92 deg (approx)

(from west @ 0 deg to north @ 90 deg)

How does friction slow down a vehicle?

As per Newton's first law, if there be an external force acting then it would increase the speed or decrease the speed depending the direction of the force acting on the moving body. Here frictional force would act in the direction opposite to the direction of motion, so the speed is to be reduced. Hence the acceleration is negative kind and it is known as retardation or deceleration. So the speed goes on increasing and finally comes to rest. The other way to explain the same is following. As the moving body, possessing kinetic energy has to do work against the force of friction, its energy gradually exhausted and finally comes to rest.
