The total displacement is 2km north, as the southward and northward displacements cancel each other out.

north, 35 degrees north of east
To find the total displacement, we can break it down: the 4 km south and the 2 km north result in a net displacement of 2 km south (4 km south - 2 km north = 2 km south). Then, adding the 5 km north gives a total displacement of 3 km north (2 km south + 5 km north = 3 km north). Therefore, the total displacement is 3 km north.
To find the correct displacement, we need to consider the net movement in the north-south direction. Starting from the origin, you move 4 km south, then 2 km north, resulting in a net movement of 2 km south. Next, moving 5 km south brings the total to 7 km south, and finally moving 5 km north results in a net position of 2 km south. Thus, the correct displacement is 2 km south.
4-2+5-5 = 2 km south. It's simple addition, keeping track of the plus and minus signs (south is plus, north is minus).

The displacement of the hiker can be found by treating the eastward and northward movements as vectors. Using the Pythagorean theorem, the displacement is the square root of the sum of the squares of the distances traveled in each direction. In this case, the displacement is √(3.0 km)^2 + (4.0 km)^2 = √(9 km^2 + 16 km^2) = √25 km^2 = 5.0 km. Therefore, the displacement of the hiker is 5.0 km in a direction that is 53.1 degrees north of east.
