Question

An ant Travels a distance of 8 cm from P to q and then moves a distance of 6 CM at right angles to PQ find its resultant and displacement

Answer 1

Answer:its displacement will be 10cm.

Answer 2

Answer:

here is your answer

hope it helps  :)

Explanation:

The ant travels a distance of 8 cm in a straight line from p to q and then moves 6 cm perpendicularly to the line  

Then the resultant displacement of the ant from p is the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle that is created by this movement.

Therefore, as per the mathematical formula, hypotenuse = 82 + 62 = 100.

Hence, the displacement of the ant = √100 = 10 cm, which is the longest side of a triangle.
