A truck moves 70 m east, then moves 120 m west, and finally moves east again a distance of 90 m. If east is chosen as the positive direction, what is the truck's resultant displacement

Sagot :

Answer:

140m east

Explanation:

If East is positive then lets rephrase the problem into integers

A truck moves +70 m, then moves -120m, and finally moves +90m.

So totally Displacement = +70-120+90= +140m

Since east is positive, the trucks resultant displacement is 140 m east of origin
