A. One block. im doing the same worksheet right now.
Displacement is basically the total space between point A and point B. Commonly mistaken, displacement is different than distance. For example, if somebody walked 5 meters to the right, then 4 meters to the left, their displacement would be 1 meter, and their distance walked would be 9 meters.
7km
The final displacement would be 3 km east of the starting point.
She has walked 23 miles, but her displacement is only 7 miles.
To determine Mark's total displacement, you can use the Pythagorean theorem. He walked 2 miles east and 1 mile north, forming a right triangle where the legs are 2 miles and 1 mile. The displacement is the hypotenuse, calculated as √(2² + 1²) = √(4 + 1) = √5, which is approximately 2.24 miles in a northeast direction.
subtract 1 from 2
She waited patiently for her lunch. They walked patiently along the path until they reached the car.
None. Nobody has walked on the moon since December, 1972.
7.1 km
"Distance" is how far you walked or drove from the time you start out untilthe time you stop, regardless of where the places are."Displacement" is the length of the straight line between the place you start fromand the place where you stop, regardless of the path you follow to get there.If you end up where you started, then the displacement is zero.
