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.
To calculate the total displacement, we can break down the student's movements into net east-west and north-south components. The student walks 3 blocks east, 1 block west (net 2 blocks east), and 2 blocks north, then 2 blocks south (net 0 blocks north). Therefore, the total displacement is 2 blocks east, resulting in a final displacement of 2 blocks east.
To find Mackinzie's total displacement, we can analyze her movement. She walks 4 blocks west, 2 blocks south, 4 blocks east, and then 1 block south. After moving west and then east, her net east-west displacement is 0 blocks. Her total southward movement is 3 blocks (2 blocks + 1 block). Therefore, the magnitude of her total displacement is 3 blocks south.
To find the displacement, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. The person drives 6 blocks north and 6 blocks west, forming a right triangle with both legs measuring 6 blocks. The displacement is the hypotenuse of this triangle, calculated as √(6² + 6²) = √72, which simplifies to 6√2 blocks. The direction of the displacement is northwest.
Meg's displacement is the straight-line distance from her starting point to her ending point. She walks 5 blocks south and then returns 8 blocks north, resulting in a net movement of 3 blocks north from her original position. Therefore, her displacement is 3 blocks north.
To determine Mackinzie's total displacement, we can analyze her movements. She walks 4 blocks west, then 4 blocks east, which cancels each other out, leaving her 2 blocks south of her starting point (after moving 2 blocks south and then 1 more block south, totaling 3 blocks south). Therefore, her total displacement is 3 blocks directly south.

5 blocks
If Meg walks 5 blocks south, then turns around and walks 8 blocks back, her displacement is 3 blocks.

That is incorrect. The distance travelled north cancels out the distance travelled south. Therefore - he only travels three blocks east.
17 blocks
The displacement made by the stranger from the origin to the Mini store is 5 blocks north and 3 blocks east. This can be represented by a vector with a magnitude of 5 blocks and a direction of 37 degrees north of east.
3 blocks east
True.
