The distance from one point to another?

It depends on the route that you take. There is nothing in the question to suggest that the distance of interest is the shortest distance. In real life, the quickest route is not necessarily the shortest since travelling on highways may be faster even if longer. In such cases the relevant distance may not be the shortest. Also, you might wish to take the "scenic" route. In any built-up area the shortest meaningful distance between two points will not be "as the crow flies": the taxicab metric (for example 3 blocks East and 4 blocks North), which was developed by Minkowsky, is more appropriate. On the surface of a sphere, such as the Earth, the shortest distance is an arc of the great circle. In most cases this is not the straight line on a map.


Lily walked 2 blocks east then 1 block south How would you determine her total displacement?

The total displacement will be calculated using Pythagoras theorem. The distance traveled will form the two sides of the triangle. Hence we have to calculate the hypotenuse side using the formula Square root of (2 power 2 + 1 power 2)=Square root(5)=2.23

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.

Miles measures distance. Square blocks measures area. Therefore, you can not compare the two.

What is blocks walking in other words and what is it in miles and is it American?

A block is the distance from one road intersection to the next. It is not a fixed distance. This distance is often about 100 meters, but it may vary from one block to the next, and of course from one city to another. Brasilia, I have been told, has "superblocks" of about 500 meters each - 5 times the distance otherwise considered typical.Number of blocks walking is an American expression expressing distances in a city. Blocks do not have a set distance; however in New York City, the average length of a north-south block is 1/20th of a mile, or 264 feet. An east-west block is about 1/5th of a mile, or 1056 feet.


Two blocks with the same mass are 8 meters apart The blocks are then moved so that they are 16 meters apart How would this change the gravitational force acting between the two blocks?

It would decrease because the distance between the blocks has increased.
