A dog walks 6m north 4m soutch What is the total displcement of the dog from the starting point?
"Displacement" in physics usually referrs to the net change in position - meaning, take a snapshot of the dog before he starts moving and a snapshot of the dog when he's finished moving, and the distance between his two positions is his net displacement. Nothing he does in between affects the result - only where he starts and where he ends up.If you walk 6 meters north and then turn around and walk 4 meters south, I hope it makes sense that you are now standing 2 meters north of the point where you started. This is your net displacement (2 meters north).
Do magnetic fields point from north to south?
Yes, magnetic fields point from north to south.
Why does a compass needle point in the north and south direction?
A compass needle aligns with the Earth's magnetic field, which has a north and south pole. The north-seeking end of the magnet is attracted to the Earth's magnetic south pole, causing the needle to point north.
In which direction do magnetic field lines point from the south pole to the north pole of a magnet?
Magnetic field lines point from the south pole to the north pole of a magnet.
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 starting point for all lines of longitude?
The North and South Poles.
What is the starting point for measuring latitude?
The starting point would be the equator. Lines of latitude run parallel to the equator.
What is an imaginary line that runs north and south and is the starting point for east?
The Prime Meridian is an imaginary line that runs north and south at 0 degrees longitude. It serves as the starting point for measuring east and west location coordinates on the Earth's surface.
You walked 1 mile south then 1 mile east then walked 1 mile north and you were back to your original starting point If you are NOT at the north pole or south pole where are you?

south pole This is not the correct answer...DuFuss
What are the points farthest north and south on earth?
The point farthest north on Earth is the North Pole, located at approximately 90 degrees north latitude. The point farthest south on Earth is the South Pole, located at approximately 90 degrees south latitude.
What are the north and south hemispheres divided by?
The North and South Hemispheres are divided by the Equator, an imaginary line that circles the Earth at its widest point. The Equator is located at 0 degrees latitude and serves as the starting point for measuring latitude in both directions.
Which way is longtitude?
Longitude lines run vertically on a map from the North Pole to the South Pole. They measure the east-west position of a point on Earth relative to the Prime Meridian, which is the starting point at 0 degrees longitude.
How many city blocks from starting point if you walked 4 blocks north then 5 blocks west after that 8 blocks south then 7 blocks east and finally 4 blocks south?
You finish 2 blocks east and 8 blocks south of your starting point.
Omar drives a car five miles north then five miles west then five miles south How many miles is he likely to be from his starting point?
The obvious answer is 5 miles. The not-so-obvious part is it depends on where he is when he starts. If he is on the equator, he is five miles from his point of origin. If his starting point was the south pole, and he drives five miles north, then west, then south, he will arrive back at his starting point. Before you disagree, consider that he is driving on a sphere not a flat plain.
