2D MOTION

why we comparing vertical height with resultant of velocities in a slanting direction? shouldnt we compare velocities with hypotenuse or something like that

wdym by resultant of velocity? infact even the term 'velocity' isn't mentioned in the question it clearly says speed and if both the man's and escalator's speed is in steps/sec then we can absolutely add it

yes but I think that the height taken seems wrong It should be along the steps(hypotenuse)

'reaches the top in 20 steps' which means that he covered h distance in y direction why should it be along hypotenuse?

I think igot the point, thanksss so the same will work with velocity right?

i guess so. but being pedantic ig describing it as velocity while also saying it's in steps/sec doesn't goes well

ohh i c so i can think steps as a vertical line along which a point is moving upwards with a const sped(given)

yes
