Answer:

Distance=16 km

Displacement=11.31 km

Explanation:

  • To Find Distance

S=8+8=16 km

  • To Find Displacement

d=

[tex] \sqrt{ {8}^{2} + {8}^{2} } = \sqrt{64 + 64} = \sqrt{128} = 11.31 \: km [/tex]

[tex]{hyp} = \sqrt{ {base}^{2} + {perpendicular}^{2} } [/tex]

Answer:

Distance=16 km

Displacement=11.31 km

Explanation:

To Find Distance

S=8+8=16 km

To Find Displacement

d=

\sqrt{ {8}^{2} + {8}^{2} } = \sqrt{64 + 64} = \sqrt{128} = 11.31 \: km
