You finish 2 blocks east and 8 blocks south of your starting point.
If Kyoto walks 3 blocks North 4 blocks West then 3 blocks south if her starting place is the reference point how far away is her final position?
Kyoto will be 4 blocks west with reference to his/her starting point
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.
What is the displacement for a driver who traveled 10 km to get to a point that is 4 km from his starting point?
A displacement of 4 km from the starting point.
How many city blocks would you have to walk back if you walked 7 blocks east then 10 blocks north then finishing by walking 8 blocks west?
To complete the circle you would have to walk 10 blocks south and 1 block east to return to your starting point, 11 blocks.
What route did islam travel from the starting point of africa?
The Spread of Islam traveled on the Silk road from the starting point of Africa.
Ralph travels four blocks north then two east then three south and finally two west How many blocks is Ralph from his starting place?
Ralph is one block north of his starting place, although he walked eleven blocks to get there. The Coordinate SolutionIf you consider the starting point at (0,0) and movement north /east as positive, and south / west as negative, you create the following movement. (0,0) + (4,0) + (0,2) + (-3, 0) + (0, -2) = (1,0) or 1 block north of the start.
Charlie travels Four blocks north Two east Three south and finally Two west How far is Charlie from his starting point?
The answer is one block. if you draw on a map where Charlie is, and move him in the correct directions, you will see that he is almost back where he began, only one block to the north of where he first started. This is a simple exercise in X and Y map coordinates. Setting the initial point at 0,0 and adding numerically, you can determine the final point. Let X be the points east and west (right and left as on a map). Let Y be the points north and south (up and down as on a map). Adding each change to the 0,0 starting point we get : * 4 blocks north = 0,4 * 2 blocks east = 2, 4 * 3 blocks south = 2, 1 * 2 blocks west = 0,1 Using this form, it is easy to see that he reversed his east-west movement completely, and only had a net change of +1 (north) on his north-south movement.
In land navigation which north is your starting point or baseline?
magnetic north
How does the distance moved by an object between its starting point and its ending point compare with the displacement vector between the same point?
Displacement is how far the object is from the starting point, while distance traveled is the how far the object traveled all together. -Eric P
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.
