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.
To find the total displacement, we need to calculate the net movement in the north-south direction. The child walks 4m south and 5m south, totaling 9m south, and then walks 2m north and 5m north, totaling 7m north. The net displacement is 9m south - 7m north = 2m south. Therefore, the total displacement of the child is 2m south.
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.
80
To find the total displacement, we calculate the net movement in the north-south direction. The child walks 4 m south and then 5 m south, totaling 9 m south. They then walk 2 m north and 5 m north, totaling 7 m north. The net displacement is 9 m south - 7 m north = 2 m south.
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 the total displacement, we need to calculate the net movement in the north-south direction. The child walks 4m south and 5m south, totaling 9m south, and then walks 2m north and 5m north, totaling 7m north. The net displacement is 9m south - 7m north = 2m south. Therefore, the total displacement of the child is 2m south.

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

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.
The answer is 80 because 100-30+10 is 80.
To find the total displacement, we calculate the net movement in the north-south direction. The child walks 4 m south and then 5 m south, totaling 9 m south. They then walk 2 m north and 5 m north, totaling 7 m north. The net displacement is 9 m south - 7 m north = 2 m south.
Sarah's total displacement can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The horizontal displacement is 20 yards east, and the vertical displacement is 50 yards north minus 50 yards south, which equals 0. This means her total displacement is the square root of (20^2 + 0^2) = 20 yards.
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.
