Answer:
Body moving east - Total distance from initial point after 100 seconds = 15*100 = 1500 metres = 1.5 kilometres
Body moving north - Total distance from initial point after 100 seconds = 20*100 = 2000 metres = 2 kilometres
By applying Pythagoras Theorem,
Total distance² = 1.5² kms + 2² kms
Total distance² = 2.25 kms + 4 kms
Total distance² = 6.25 kms
Total distance = √6.25 kms
= 2.5 kms
