A person walks 2.00 m east, then turns and goes 4.00 m west, then turns and goes back 1.00 m east. what is the distance and displacement

Respuesta :

Explanation:

Let east = E, and, west = opposite to east = - E.

Here, displacement:

=> 2m east + 4m west + 1m east

=> 2E + 4(-E) + 1E

=> 2E - 4E + 1E

=> - 1E

=> 1(-E)

=> 1m west

And, distance,

=> 2m + 4m + 1m = 7m
