If you want the distance from the starting point, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem. You can also use your calculator's rectangular --> polar conversion; this will give you not only the distance, but also the angle.

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 resultant velocity of the plane if a plane travels 100 km per hour to the north with a headwind of 25 km per hour towards the south?
The resultant velocity of a plane is 75 km/hr.
Someone walked three blocks east then two blocks south one block west and finally two blocks north they traveled a distance of eight blocks and have a displacement of what blocks east?
3 blocks east
Sally walks 4 m North3 m East 2 m North and then 4 m West what is her displacement?
Total of 6m north and 1m west. Using Pythagoras that's sqrt(36+4) miles in total at an angle whose tangent is 1/6, west of north.
What is the resultant of 1230 ms South and 1450 ms North?
The resultant is 220 ms North (1450 - 1230 = 220). It is the net displacement when adding the two displacements in opposite directions.
Calculate the resultant of the pair of velocities 100 km north and 75 km south?
100 km and 75 km are displacements, NOT velocities. The resultant displacement is 25 km north,
How do you find north south east west?
find the resultant of the following displacement a=20km 30south of east
What is the displacement of a car if it drives 20miles north and then 3 miles south?
It's 17.0m North. (20N - 3S)
A radio controlled car rolls 10 miles south then reverses direction and rolls 8 miles north The car has traveled a distance of 18 miles and has a displacement of miles south?
The car has traveled a total distance of 18 miles (10 miles south + 8 miles north), but its displacement is 2 miles south. Displacement is the shortest distance between the starting and ending points, regardless of the actual path taken.
What is the correct displacement for the following vectors 4 km south 2 km north 5 km south and 5 km north?
The resultant is 2 km South.
Mark walked 2 miles east then 1 mile north How would you determine his total displacement?
Draw a vector from his starting point to his ending point.
A person walks 3 miles north, turns and walks 2 miles east. Calculate the persons distance traveled and their displacement?
Distance 2+3=5 displacement 2
A hiker walks 15MI due east then heads due north for 8 KM?
The hiker first walked 15 miles east. Then, the hiker walked 8 kilometers north. The hiker's path would be a combination of eastward and northward directions.
A hiker leaves camp and hikes 9 miles north and then hikes 7 miles east What is the resulting displacement of the hiker?
The resulting displacement can be found by using the Pythagorean theorem: (9 miles)^2 + (7 miles)^2 = c^2 81 + 49 = c^2 c = √130 Therefore, the resulting displacement is approximately 11.4 miles in a northeast direction.
Andrea walked 1 block north and than 2 blocks west how you determine her total displacement?
subtract 1 from 2
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.
