Question

A body moves 6m north, 8m east and 10 m vertically upwards, what is its resultant displacement from initial position?​

Answer 1

Answer:

8m + 6m+10m=24m

Explanation:

I think this is the answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

Its net displacement from initial position is

$10\sqrt{2} \: m$

Explanation:

This was a basic question of direction sense or we can say to test your understanding of Pythagoras Theorem.

1. Make a proper diagram.
2. Find the length of hyotenuse of east-west triangle.
3. Then find length of vertical-northeast triangle.
4. You'll have the net displacement from the initial position.
