Is the distance that you walk equal to the magnitude of your displacement? Give an example that supports your conclusion.
Homework Answers
Not necessarily. For example, you could walk around the block (one km per side). Your displacement would be zero, but the distance that you walk would be 4 kilometers.

A student walks forward a distance represented by the displacement vector A of magnitude 5.3 m, and then walks to obtain an additional displacement B of length 4.1 perpendicular to A. (a) What is the magnitude of the resulting displacement from the origin? (b) What magnitude of total displacement would result if the second displacement were -B instead of B? Conceptualize The length of the arrow representing displacement vector A is proportional to the distance of 5.3 m that A...
