Displacement vector is the vector joining initial position to final position.
Displacement towards west = 50 m from point A to point B
Displacement toward east from B towards A and beyond A to point C
= 250 m
Final Displacement = - 250 + 50 meters in the direction of west
= - 200 m towards West or 200 m towards East
Displacement towards west = 50 m from point A to point B
Displacement toward east from B towards A and beyond A to point C
= 250 m
Final Displacement = - 250 + 50 meters in the direction of west
= - 200 m towards West or 200 m towards East
