Problems with detailed solutions on displacement and distance of moving objects. Problem 1 An object moves from point A to point B to point C, then back to point B and then to point C along the line shown in the figure below. a) Find the distance covered by the moving object. b) Find the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the object.
Calculate the DISTANCE and DISPLACEMENT of the following situations: 1. David walks 3 km north, then turns and walks 4 km east. Express your answer in kilometers. Distance = 3 km + 4 km = 7 km For the displacement, we will use the Pythagorean Theorem because David’s path makes a right angle. See the image below.
