Question

a man moved 6m in south and then turned towards east to move 8m. calculate the distance travelled by the man and the displacement.

i will mark you as brainliest

Answer 1

.howdy!!


your answer is ----

DISTANCE = 6 + 8 = 14 METER


AND ,

DISPLACEMENT =
$\sqrt{ {6}^{2} + {8}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{36 + 64} \\ = \sqrt{100} = 10meter$


hope it help you

Answer 2

"The distance travelled by the man is 14m and displacement is 10m.

Given, a man moved 6m south and turned towards and moved 8m east.

To find the "total distance" covered by man we have to add the distance covered by the man towards south and east.

So, total distance = 6+8 = 14m

Displacement is the action of moving something from some place to another.

To find displacement we have to square the distance of the man covered towards south and east,

Displacement = sum of square root of the distance = $\sqrt{6^{2}+8^{2}}=\sqrt{36+64}$

$=\sqrt{100}$

=10m"
