the east /west distances are the same but the north south are different. so subtract the north from the south distances and you end up with 60 meters south.

What is the displacement of a car traveling 10 km north 5km east 15 km south and 5 km north?
What is the displacement of a car traveling 10 km north 5km east 15 km south and 5 km north?
find the resultant of the following displacement a=20km 30south of east
46 squared + 23 squared = the resultant displacement squared. Pythagoras' theorem.
1 mile East
The displacement of the car is 5 km to the east.
The cyclist ends up 1 mile east of the starting point (unless the cycling takes place near the north or south pole!). So the displacement is 1 mile in an easterly direction.
Going clockwise, the 16 directions are... North North North East North East East North East East East South East South East South South East South South South West South West West South West West West North West North West North North West ...and back to North again.
Well, let's see. Starting at North and proceeding clockwise from there,you've got your-- north by east-- north-northeast-- northeast by north-- northeast-- northeast by east-- east-northeast-- east by north-- EAST-- east by south-- east-southeast-- southeast by east-- southeast-- southeast by south-- south-southeast-- south by east-- SOUTH-- south by west-- south-southwest-- southwest by south-- southwest-- southwest by west-- west-southwest-- west by south-- WEST-- west by north-- west-northwest-- northwest by west-- northwest-- northwest by north-- north-northwest, and-- north by west
Yes. If the slope is positive, the direction of the displacement is positive (e.g. north, east, or right). If the slope is negative, the direction of the displacement is negative (e.g. south, west, or left).
North : north east : east : south east : south : south west : west : north west.
