Question

Rachel drove 300 miles from her home to Philadelphia to visit her sister and then returned home a week later. At the end of the trip what was her displacement and distance traveled in that order

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer would be - zero miles, 600 miles.

Explanation:

She started from the same point and after the trip, she ended it on the same point in Philadelphia therefore the displacement is expected to be zero.

The distance she traveled would be 2 into 300 miles as she traveled to her sister and traveled back from there so

Distance = 2*300

= 600 miles.

Thus, the correct answer would be - 0 and 600 miles.
