move 6 blocks west
By driving west 6 blocks
If Meg walks 5 blocks south, then turns around and walks 8 blocks back, her displacement is 3 blocks.
3 blocks east
Yes. A displacement is a vector. A vector is some sort of magnitude and a direction. Since 3 blocks is a magnitue(it is a distance) and east is a direction, the quantity is a vector, and therefore, a displacement. However, if you did not include a direction, the quantity is scalar, meaning it has magnitude, but no direction. Saying "Walk Three Blocks" could mean to walk three blocks in any direction. Not very useful. Hope this helps!
5 blocks
The girl's displacement can be calculated by finding the net distance and direction from her starting point to her ending point. Using the Pythagorean theorem, her displacement would be approximately 5.00 blocks in a northeast direction.
True.
Edward and his family are sightseeing. They walk two blocks north, four blocks west and two blocks south. All together they have walked blocks and have a total displacement magnitude only of 8. 2+4+2=8
3
The total is 3
