displacement is the measure of the distance from the starting and ending points, AND the direction.
it doesnt matter that she ran 300m total.
heres the math for displacement:
point b (the direction with the larger number) - point a(direction with the smaller number
the direction will be point b's direction.
so, plug it in.
200m west - 100m east
=100m west
^^
if u wer to draw displacement, you would not need 2 draw the 200m west or the 100m east; you would imply draw the starting point and then 100m west, and draw a straight line connecting them.
^^ hope this helps!

What is the displacement for 45km due east then 45km due north then 45km due east?
5km east
Can a position time graph tell in which directionthe displacement of an object is?
Yes. If the slope is positive, the direction of the displacement is positive (e.g. north, east, or right). If the slope is negative, the direction of the displacement is negative (e.g. south, west, or left).
A hiker leaves camp and hikes 9 miles north and then hikes 7 miles east What is the resulting displacement of the hiker?
The resulting displacement can be found by using the Pythagorean theorem: (9 miles)^2 + (7 miles)^2 = c^2 81 + 49 = c^2 c = √130 Therefore, the resulting displacement is approximately 11.4 miles in a northeast direction.
A particle moves through a distance of 8 km due east and then 6 km due north Then the magnitude of displacement is how much?
You can calculate the magnitude of the displacement by using Pythagoras's Theorem. a2+b2=c2 Let a be 8, b be 6 and c be the magnitude. 8km2+6km2 = c2 64k+36km = c2 100km = c2 10km = c
What wpuld a 3 mile high wave do if it hits east coast?
A 3 mile high wave hitting the east coast would likely cause catastrophic damage, leading to widespread destruction of coastal communities, infrastructure, and ecosystems. The wave would result in massive flooding, displacement of populations, and loss of life. Recovery and rebuilding efforts would be extremely challenging and prolonged.
A bird flies 100m due east from a tree then 200m northeast What is the birds net displacement?
The bird's net displacement can be determined by adding the eastward and northward displacements using vector addition. The eastward displacement is 100m, and the northeast displacement can be split into eastward and northward components using trigonometry (200m * cos(45°) and 200m * sin(45°), respectively). Calculate the resultant displacement using the Pythagorean theorem on the eastward and northward components.
What is your displacement if you walk 100m north 20m east 30m south 50m west and 70m south?
Your displacement is 150m south. Displacement is the shortest distance and direction from the starting point to the final point, so you need to consider the overall movement, not just the sum of distances in each direction.
What is the relationship between displacement and direction?
Displacement is just distance traveled and a direction. For example 40m east is a displacement distance
Is 5 m east an acceleration?
no. this is a displacement
What is the Displacement traveling 23km east and the 15 km west?
The total displacement is 8 km.
What is the displacement for 45km due east then 45km due north then 45km due east?
5km east
Ask us anythingMatch the following moves to the correct total distance and displacement of the moves. A. Move 2 m east and then 12 m east Displacement is 4 m west distance is 20 m B. Move 10 m east an?
For move A, if you move 2 m east and then 12 m east, the total distance is 14 m, and the displacement is 14 m east. For move B, if you move 10 m east, the total distance is 10 m, and the displacement is also 10 m east. The provided displacement and distance for move A are incorrect; it should not be 4 m west and 20 m total.
If you walk 5 km east then turned and walked 2 km west what would your final displacement be?
The final displacement would be 3 km east of the starting point.
What is the resulting displacement accomplished by Mary's walk?
Mary's walk resulted in a displacement of 500 meters east.
What is the total displacement of a student who walks 3 blocks east 2 blocks north 1 block westand then 2 blocks 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.
How do you find north south east west?
find the resultant of the following displacement a=20km 30south of east
