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!

What is displacement made by the stranger from the origin to the Mini store?
The displacement made by the stranger from the origin to the Mini store is 5 blocks north and 3 blocks east. This can be represented by a vector with a magnitude of 5 blocks and a direction of 37 degrees north of east.
What is the resulting displacement accomplished by Mary's walk?
Mary's walk resulted in a displacement of 500 meters east.
Displacement vectors of 3 m and 5 m in the same direction combine to make a displacement vector that is in magnitude.?
Displacement vector in the same direction = 3 m + 5 m = 8 m.
A sailboat moves 1200m due east followed by 1500 m due northeast What is the overall displacement?
The overall displacement is the vector sum of the two displacements. Using the Pythagorean theorem, the displacement is √(1200^2 + 1500^2) = √(1440000 + 2250000) = √3690000 ≈ 1921.32 m. The direction can be found using trigonometry as arctan(1500/1200) ≈ 49.4 degrees north of east.
Sarah walks part way around around a swimming pool She walks 50 yards north then 20 yards east and 50 yards south The magnitude of her total displacement during the walk is how many yards?
Sarah's total displacement can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The horizontal displacement is 20 yards east, and the vertical displacement is 50 yards north minus 50 yards south, which equals 0. This means her total displacement is the square root of (20^2 + 0^2) = 20 yards.
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.
If a person walks 3 blocks East and 4 blocks North what is the displacement of the person?
5 blocks
Ask us anythingMackinzie walks 4 blocks west then 2 blocks south then 4 blocks east and finally 1 block south. What is the magnitude of her total displacement during this walk (in blocks)?
To find Mackinzie's total displacement, we can analyze her movement. She walks 4 blocks west, 2 blocks south, 4 blocks east, and then 1 block south. After moving west and then east, her net east-west displacement is 0 blocks. Her total southward movement is 3 blocks (2 blocks + 1 block). Therefore, the magnitude of her total displacement is 3 blocks south.
Someone walked three blocks east then two blocks south one block west and finally two blocks north they traveled a distance of eight blocks and have a displacement of what blocks east?
3 blocks east
What is displacement made by the stranger from the origin to the Mini store?
The displacement made by the stranger from the origin to the Mini store is 5 blocks north and 3 blocks east. This can be represented by a vector with a magnitude of 5 blocks and a direction of 37 degrees north of east.

The answer is....................................... LOL do it yourself, lml no its ................ Me giving you the answer wont help you............. I bet your still waiting or you went back but okay... your still here -________- suits your self Its 2 blocks east!
Meg walks 5 blocks south and then turns around and walks 8 blocks back to the north the distance she walks is 13 blocks what is her displacement?
If Meg walks 5 blocks south, then turns around and walks 8 blocks back, her displacement is 3 blocks.
A girl delivering newspapers covers her route by traveling 3.00 blocks west 4.00 blocks north then 6.00 blocks east what is her displacement?
A girl delivering newspapers covers her route by traveling 10.00 blocks west, 4.00 blocks north, and then 2.00 blocks east Opposite = 4 (related to y axis on 4 blocks north) Adjacent = 8 (related to x axis on 10 b west - 2 blocks east) tan -1 x (4/8) tan theta - 26.6 degrees since you are looking for the hypotenuse, then sin theta = opp/hyp sin 26.6=4/hypotenuse 4/sin(26.6) = 8.9 blocks
