A man travels a distance of 1.5 m towards East, then 2.0 m towards South and finally 4.5
m towards East.
i. What is the total distance travelled?
ii. What is his resultant displacement?

Answers

Answered by Puneetop

Explanation:

Resultant displacement can be found using the Pythagoras theorem. Resultant displacement will be given by the hypotenuse, if the distance in east direction (i.e.) 1.5+4.5= 6 m is considered as base of the triangle and distance in south direction (i.e.) 2 m is considered as height of the triangle.
