Question

bob leaves his house and walks 110m. from that location, he walks another 160. what is bobs displacement from his house if he walks eastward both times

Answer 1

The figure given below shows the travelling of Bob. First he travels along east 110 m and then again travels 160 m. SO the displacement will be as shown by the figure.

Displacement =
`\sqrt{110^(2)+ 160^(2)}`

= 194.16 m

SO displacement of Bob from his home = 194.16 m
