The displacement of the runner if she runs 4 miles out and ends up back at her house is 4 miles

What is displacement:

This is a vector quantity which is defined as the rate of change of distance of an object at a particular time. It is represented with the symbol, s

  • Displacement, s = starting position - ending position

= 4 miles - 0 miles

= 4 miles

Displacement is the overall change in position of an object or how far out of place the object is.

So, the displacement of the runner is 4 miles
