If the displacement is negative 2 north and represents a positive displacement What is the direction?
south
A -2 displacement towards the north represents a positive displacement towards the south?
Indeed it is.
Why positive displacement are called positive?
Because it has been decided that the right and upwards directions in a plane are the positive directions and the left and downwards are negative. Originally, the decisions were arbitrary but conventionally agreed (in the same sort of way that North is usually shown at the top of a map). Any displacement in a positive direction is called a positive displacement.
What is the velocity of an airplane that experiences a displacement of 580 m in the north direction in 2.5 s?
The craft's velocity is 232 meters per second north.
What is the displacement of a cyclist who travels 1 mile north then 1 mile east and finally 1 mile south?
The cyclist ends up 1 mile east of the starting point (unless the cycling takes place near the north or south pole!). So the displacement is 1 mile in an easterly direction.
What are displacement vectors of 2 km south and 6 km north and 5 km south and 6 km north combine to a total displacement of?
2 km south
What is the correct displacement for the following vectors 4 km south km north 5 km south and 5 km north?
The displacement is a shortest distance. Here, the displacement will be 1 km. It will be in the North direction.
What is the correct displacement for the following vectors 4 km south 2 km north 5 km south .5 km north?
The displacement is a shortest distance. Here, the displacement will be 1 km. It will be in the North direction.
What is the correct displacement for the following vectors 4 km south 2 km north 5 km south 5 km north?
The displacement is a shortest distance. Here, the displacement will be 1 km. It will be in the North direction.
What is the correct displacement for the following vectors 4 km south 2 km north 2 km south and 5 km north?
The displacement is a shortest distance. Here, the displacement will be 1 km. It will be in the North direction.
What is the correct displacement for the following vectors 4km south 2km north 5km south and 5km north?
The total displacement is 2km north, as the southward and northward displacements cancel each other out.
What are not vectors?
north, 35 degrees north of east
If the displacement is negative 2 north and represents a positive displacement What is the direction?
south
A -2 displacement towards the north represents a positive displacement towards the south?
Indeed it is.
What is the displacement of a hiker who travels 3.0 km east and then 4.0 km north?
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.
A car moved 50 km to the North. what is the displacement?
The displacement of the car is 50 km North. Displacement is a vector quantity that represents the shortest distance and direction from the initial to the final position of an object.
A dog walks 6m north 4m south What is the total displcement of the dog from the starting point?
The total displacement of the dog from the starting point can be calculated by finding the net displacement, which is the difference between the distances moved in each direction. In this case, the net displacement would be 6m north - 4m south, resulting in a total displacement of 2m north.
