You walked 1 mile south then 1 mile east then walked 1 mile north and you were back to your original starting point If you are NOT at the north pole or south pole where are you?

You walked 1 mile south then 1 mile east then walked 1 mile north and you were back to your original starting point If you are NOT at the north pole where are you?
south pole This is not the correct answer...DuFuss
If you walked one mile south one mile west and then one mile north and ended where would you be relative to where you began?
If you started 1/2 mile north of the equator you'd end up a mile west of where you began. Or, put another way, your starting point would lie one mile to the east of your end point. If you started on the north or south pole you'd end up where you started. Or if you started 1.159 miles north of the South Pole. The first mile south would put you .159 miles north of the South Pole; the mile west would encircle the pole, putting you back at the beginning of the westward mile; then go north 1 mile to return to your starting position.
How many places on Earth can one travel one mile south one mile west then one mile north and have returned to the point of origin?
Two; the north and south poles. Because a compass will always point you in the direction of the poles due to their magnetic emission, if you start exactly at the north pole and travel due south one mile and due west one more mile, your compass will point you directly back to the pole, which you will be exactly one mile away from, and likewise for the south pole.
How many points are on the globe that you can go 1 mile south 1 mile east and 1 mile north and still end up in the same point you started at?
There is one - the north pole. Note that you could go 1 mile south, 1 mile west, and one mile back north to end up on the north pole where you began your trip.Similarly, you could do the opposite directions from the south pole. Go 1 mile north, then 1 mile east or west, and go 1 mile back south to end up on the south pole again.(Note that moving E or W from a point near the poles involves a curved path rather than a straight line.)No, there are an infinite number. At any point on the circle that is 1+1/(2 x pi) miles from the south pole, you can go 1 mile south, 1 mile west will do a complete circuit of the South pole and get you back to where you were after the South leg, and then 1 mile North will get you back to where you started.And at any point on the circle that is 1 + 1/(4 x pi) miles from the South Pole, you can go 1 mile South, 1 mile west will do 2 laps around the pole, and 1 mile North will take you back to where you started ... etc.
How many places on Earth can one travel one mile south one mile west then one mile north and have returned to the point of orgin?
Just ONE - the North pole !
What is the displacement of a cyclist who traveled 1 mile north then 1 mile east and then finally 1 mile south?
The cyclist's displacement is the straight-line distance from their starting point to their final position. After traveling 1 mile north and then 1 mile east, the cyclist is located at the coordinates (1 mile east, 1 mile north). Moving 1 mile south returns them to the same latitude as their starting point, resulting in a final position of 1 mile east of the starting point. Therefore, the displacement is 1 mile east.
What is the displacement of a cyclist who travels 1 mile north then 1 mile east and finally 1 mile south?
The cyclist ends up 1 mile east of the starting point (unless the cycling takes place near the north or south pole!). So the displacement is 1 mile in an easterly direction.
What is 44 degrees North 89 degrees West?
That point is about 0.26 mile south of Cypress Dr and 0.66 mile west of 32nd Ave in Berlin, Waushara County, Wisconsin.
If you walked one mile south one mile west and then one mile north and ended up where you started where would be you?
One answer is the equator. It is true to say that you end up on the equator again if you started there. You actually would be on the equator, but you would be 1 mile west of your origonal location on the equator. You ended up where you started - sorta. There are other ideas, however. Let's look. There are two correct answers. One is the North Pole. "North and South" are not "up and down," it is moving toward the respective pole. Therefore, traveling one mile south of the North Pole, traveling any distance west or east, then one mile north, would put you back at the North Pole. The other, less common answer, is that there are an infinite number of places on the Earth, where you would end up at the starting location if you were to travel one mile south, west, then north. And that is anywhere 1.159 miles north of the South Pole. You would travel south for one mile, putting you at .159 miles north of the South Pole. Then traveling one mile west would cause you to make a complete circle around the South Pole, ending where the westward mile started. Then travel one mile north and that would put you back at your original starting point.
A man walks one mile south one mile east and one mile north and ended up back where he started Where is he?
He is at the North Pole.
What is Displacement of 1 mile northeast then 1 miles south?
Displacement is the shortest straight-line distance from the starting point to the ending point, along with the direction. If you move 1 mile northeast and then 1 mile south, your final position will be approximately 0.5 miles east and 0.5 miles north of your original starting point. Thus, the overall displacement can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem, resulting in a displacement of about 1.41 miles at an angle of 45 degrees north of east.
