Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
10,005m (10.005Km) East ,because in starting 12 m North, then right turn & move 10 km , after again right turn & move 12 m , last Left turn and move after 5 m so strt point to now distance become 10,005m(10×1000m+5m)
Concept
The term "distance travelled" refers to the amount of ground an object must travel over in order to reach its destination in a given amount of time.
The distance-covered formula can be used to determine how far a car trip or pool lap will take. Driving a car will result in the following calculations: distance in kilometres or miles, speed in kilometres per hour or miles per hour, and time in hours.
Given
direction through which rajiv walked = 12 km north, then turned right and walked 10km and again turned right and walked 12 m then he turned left and walked 5m.
Find
what direction and how far he has come from the starting point.
Solution
According to the direction rajiv walked , total distance covered by rajiv is:
10 km ₊ 12m ₋ 12 m ₊ 5m
= 10 km ₊ 5m
1 km = 1000m
= 10,000m ₊ 5m
= 10005 m east
hence rajiv is 10005 m far in east direction from the starting point.
