1 A hiker starts at point P and walks 2.0 kilometers due east and then 1.4 kilometers due north. -What is the total distance traveled by the hiker?
-Draw a sketch representing the situation. Draw the resultant vector for the hiker’s displacement and label it R.
-What is the magnitude of the hiker’s displacement vector?

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance has to do with how far an object or a body has travelled. If a hiker starts at point P and walks 2.0 kilometers due east and then 1.4 kilometers due north, the total distance covered by the hiker will be:

Distance = 2.0km + 1.4km

Total distance travelled = 3.4km

The displacement is the distance covered in a specified direction. This is expressed using the Pythagoras theorem as shown:

R² = 2.0²+1.4²

R² = 4+1.96

R² = 5.96

R = √5.96

R = 2.44km

Hence the magnitude of the hiker’s displacement vector R is 2.44km

its kind of blurry. can you put a clearer pic?

step-by-step explanation:

126.66 m²

step-by-step explanation:

the pertinent area formula is a = πr², where r is the radius.

here, a = π(6.35 m)² = 40.32π, or approximately 126.66 m²
