A railway engine starts shunting wagons by first going 1000m north of railway station. It reverses and travels 1250m and then it
again moves 600m north. Finally moving 800m south it comes to rest. How far is the engine from the station and in which direction?
1 answer:
Answer:
450m South
Step-by-step explanation:
Total distance traveled Northward :
1000m + 600m = 1600m Northward
Total distance traveled Southward :
1250m + 800m = 2050m
The Displacement :
Southward - Northward
2050m - 1650m
= 450m
Since, it covers more distance towards the south, then, direction is southward
450m South
