Question

shows a map of Olivia's trip to a coffee shop. She gets on her bike at Loomis and then rides south 0.9mi to Broadway. She turns east onto Broadway, rides 0.8 mi to where Broadway turns, and then continues another 1.2mi to the shop. What is the magnitude of the total displacement of her trip?

Answer 1

The  magnitude of the total displacement of her trip is 2.2 miles.

Total displacement of Olivia's trip

The magnitude of the total displacement of her trip is calculated as follows;

Total east journey = 0.8 mi + 1.2 mi = 2 mi

Resultant displacement = √(y² + x²)

Resultant displacement = √(0.9² + 2²)

Resultant displacement = 2.2 mi

Thus, the  magnitude of the total displacement of her trip is 2.2 miles.
