south
Indeed it is.
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.
20m
80
The total distance traveled (corresponding to the amount of gas the car would burn on such a trip) is 26 meters.The magnitude of the displacement vector = (Dfinal - Dinitial) = 4 meters north.
The displacement is a shortest distance. Here, the displacement will be 1 km. It will be in the North direction.

south
Yes. If the slope is positive, the direction of the displacement is positive (e.g. north, east, or right). If the slope is negative, the direction of the displacement is negative (e.g. south, west, or left).

2 km south
Indeed it is.
2km south
What is the displacement of a car traveling 10 km north 5km east 15 km south and 5 km north?
