Given,
A man travels 3m north and then 4m east
To Find,
The magnitude of displacement of the man.
Solution,
The path at which this man traveled forms a right angles triangle, where the hypotenuse acts as the displacement.
So,
Displacement = √(3²+4²)
= √25
= 5 m.
Hence, the magnitude of displacement of the man is 5 m.
