Your displacement is 20 metres.
20 meters.
Displacement is equal to zero when an object returns to its initial position after moving. This means that the overall change in position, irrespective of the path taken, is null. For example, if an object moves 5 meters forward and then 5 meters backward, its total displacement is zero. In such cases, the initial and final positions are the same.
If you have moved forward and backward, hence ending up at the same point you started, then displacement is zero. That's because Displacement takes into account the direction - hence a vector quantity.The distance only bothers about the distance - hence it doesn't matter if you came to where you started. So in total, 5 meters up and 5 down is 10. Distance = 10
To find the total displacement, we consider the dog’s initial and final positions. The dog runs 80 meters to chase the ball and then returns 80 meters back to its starting point, resulting in no net displacement from that segment. Finally, when the dog runs 20 meters south, the total displacement is 20 meters to the south. Thus, the total displacement is 20 meters south.
To calculate the total displacement of the dog, we consider its starting point as the origin. The dog runs 80 meters north, then returns to its master (which we can assume is at the starting point), and finally runs 20 meters south. Therefore, the total displacement is 80 meters north - 20 meters south, resulting in a net displacement of 60 meters north.
20 meters.
The distance traveled would be 135 meters (100m forward + 35m backward). The displacement would be 65 meters forward (100m - 35m) as it measures the shortest distance from the initial point to the final point.

The distance traveled is 135 meters (100 m forward + 35 m backwards). However, the displacement is 65 meters forward (100 m - 35 m) since displacement is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position in a straight line.
it is around about 12 meters forward 5 meters right and then 15 meters forward
If you come back to the starting point your displacement is zero
zero
Displacement is the shortest distance travelled . formula of Displacement= speed * time in meters
Mary's walk resulted in a displacement of 500 meters east.
To find the total displacement, we consider the dog’s initial and final positions. The dog runs 80 meters to chase the ball and then returns 80 meters back to its starting point, resulting in no net displacement from that segment. Finally, when the dog runs 20 meters south, the total displacement is 20 meters to the south. Thus, the total displacement is 20 meters south.
The combined displacement vector would be 8 meters in the same direction as the individual vectors, as you simply add the magnitudes of the vectors together.
