Let. A is the initial position of the Walker
After walking. 1200 meters. Both reached point B. After walking 500 meter east due to be reached Point C.
Total distance travel is =. 1200 + 500.
=1700
= The distance from starting point is easy from triangle .
[tex]AC^{2}= AB^{2}+BC^{2}\\ AC^{2} = (1200)^{2}+(500)^{2} \\ = 140000+250000\\=169000\\\\= AC^{2}=1690000\\ AC=\sqrt{1690000}\\ AC=1300[/tex]
what is distance?
- Distance is the length or extent of the separation between two places. Keep in mind that the distance between two points and the distance traveled between them are not the same.
- The length of the entire journey taken to go from one point to another is the distance traveled. Travel distance is not a vector. It has no orientation, thus there is no bad sign.
- Uncertainty is a vector. This indicates that it has both a direction and a magnitude, and that it is graphically depicted as an arrow which points from the starting location to the ending place.
