If it is travelling due south and due west, then to find the displacement, we can use pythagoras' thereom because it would be a right-angled triangle.
pythagoras' thereom states that a^2+b^2=c^2
If we say that a = 200km, and b = 400km, then c^2 = 200^2+400^2
so c = (200^2+400^2)^1/2
*note that the squareroot of something is also known as being to the power of 1/2
so if we equate that,
c = 447.214km displacement from its starting point.
Since it is the displacement we are finding, we also need a direction.
To find the bearing of the point c from the starting point, because it is a right-angled triangle, we can use Tan(theta) = O/A
We know that the opposite side length (O) is 400km, and the adjacent side length (A) is 200km.
So Tan(theta) = 400/200
Now we inverse Tan it to get the angle theta.
Theta = 63 degrees 26 minutes or 63.435 degrees
Now, because it is bearings, we cannot simply just write it as 63.435 degrees, it must have a direction of North, East, South or West.
Seeing that it is in the 3rd quadrant, it is in the South-West quadrant, and so the angle is South 63 degrees 26 minutes West OR we can write it in true bearings form, and knowing that each quadrant is 90 degrees, we add the first and second quadrant, with the value we get inside our 3rd quadrant, which gives us 63"26' + 90 + 90 = 243 degrees 26 minutes True.
Finally, because this is a worded question, write a worded answer for it.
The displacement of the ship is 447.214km on a bearing of South 63 degrees 26 minutes West from the starting point.
BEARING 1. A, B and C are three ships. The bearing of A from B is 045º. The bearing of C from A is 135º. If AB= 8km and AC= 6km, what is the bearing of B from C? 2. A helicopter pilot flies in the direction 147 degrees and lands when she is 12 km south of her starting point. How far did she fly?
ships can get over one million centimeters
Archimedes invented a device to set fire to ships. This used mirrors to focus the rays of the sun on the ships which were attacking the city.

a large weight drops flinging the claw to grap ships
It can't. Gross tonnage is a measure of volume, while displacement is a measure of weight. The light ship displacement is equal to the total displacement minus the deadweight.
Hull displacement & wind speed.
Cruise ships vary is size, including their displacement. They range from modest "expedition" ships of under a hundred feet to the big vessels that we see advertised in travel ads. The latter are hundreds of feet long and can displace many, many thousands of tons, even into six figures.
Wharf is a landing place for ships. It begins with the letter w.
The name for a group of ships, beginning with an "s", would be squadron.
it travels by the ships or airplanes to get goods or trdes or resources around all other country

Buoyancy regards flotation based on its displacement over a liquid. By the principal and phenomena of buoyancy the flotation of ships and bodies over water is possible.
his starting point was Santa Maria then he came across the Isthmus of Panama, poca's land and he reached Chucunaque River and discovered the Pacific Ocean. Balboa navigated by ships trying to find riches. Hope this helped
