Question

1. A car travels 36 miles North and then 45 miles East. How far does it

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Displacement is the shortest distance or path between two points.

1) Displacement = √(36² + 45²) = 57.63 miles

2) Displacement = √(100² + 500²) = 509.9 meters

3) Displacement = √(60² + 40²) = 72.11 miles

4) Displacement = √(700² + 500²) = 860.23 miles

5) Displacement = 300 - 300 = 0 miles

6) Displacement = 200 + 100 = 300 miles

7) Displacement = √(650² + 650²) = 919.24 miles

8) Yes, since a distance is moved in a direction
