If Julie and her friend are wandering around their neighborhood talking and they walk three blocks east then two blocks south and one block west and finally two blocks north where are they?
Two blocks east of their starting position.
If the displacement is negative 2 north and represents a positive displacement What is the direction?
south
A delivery truck travels 14 blocks north 16 east and 26 south what is its final displacement from the origin assuming blocks of equal length?
Using X and Y as the map coordinates, where X is east and west (positive or negative) and Y is north and south (positive and negative), and the point 0,0 as a starting point, you can show the following: * 14 blocks north to 0,14 * 16 blocks east to 16, 14 * 26 blocks south to 16, -12 The final location is 12 blocks south and 16 blocks east of the starting point. If there were a straight diagonal street, the truck would be 20 blocks from the start (square root of 122 and 162), just east of a SE direction.
Meg walks 5 blocks south and then turns around and walks 8 blocks back to the north the distance she walks is 13 blocks what is her displacement?
If Meg walks 5 blocks south, then turns around and walks 8 blocks back, her displacement is 3 blocks.

3 blocks east
If a person walks 3 blocks East and 4 blocks North what is the displacement of the person?
5 blocks
A girl delivering newspapers covers her route by traveling 3.00 blocks west 4.00 blocks north then 6.00 blocks east what is her displacement?
The girl's displacement can be calculated by finding the net distance and direction from her starting point to her ending point. Using the Pythagorean theorem, her displacement would be approximately 5.00 blocks in a northeast direction.
A person drives north 6 bolcks then turns west and drives 6 blocks the driver then turns south and drives 6 blocks how could the driver make the distance shorter while maintaining the displacement?
move 6 blocks west

Edward and his family are sightseeing. They walk two blocks north, four blocks west and two blocks south. All together they have walked blocks and have a total displacement magnitude only of 8. 2+4+2=8
How is distance and displacement the same?
The distance and displacement are the same when the displacement is parallel to itself or straight. Displacement is a vector and distance is a real number or scalar. If an object is displaced around a circle the displacement is zero and the distance is 2pi r.
What is the correct displacement for the following vectors 4 km south km north 5 km south and 5 km north?
The displacement is a shortest distance. Here, the displacement will be 1 km. It will be in the North direction.
Fred will be four blocks from his starting place if he travels two blocks north then three blocks east and then two blocks south.?
That is incorrect. The distance travelled north cancels out the distance travelled south. Therefore - he only travels three blocks east.
What is the correct displacement for the following vectors 4 km south 2 km north 5 km south 5 km north?
The displacement is a shortest distance. Here, the displacement will be 1 km. It will be in the North direction.
