If a person walks 1km north, 5 km West, 3km south, and 7km east, then the resultant displacement vector would be 2.82 km toward the south east direction

What is displacement?

When an object moves in connection to a reference frame, such as when a passenger travels to the back of an airliner or a professor walks to the right in relation to a whiteboard, its position changes. This movement in position is described as displacement.

as stated in the issue If a person goes one kilometre north, five kilometres west, three kilometres south, and seven kilometres east,

The resulting displacement vector, as we know, is the shortest feasible distance between the beginning and ending points

In the horizontal direction, the outcome is

7-5 pointing east

2 kilometres to the eas

In the vertical direction, the outcome is

3–1 km to the south

2 kilometres to the south

[tex]$\begin{aligned} \text { Resultant displacement } &=\sqrt{ }\left(2^{2}+2^{2}\right) \\ &=2 \cdot \sqrt{2} \\ &=2.82 \end{aligned}$[/tex]

As a result, the resulting displacement vector is 2.82 kilometres to the southeast.
