Question

A vector starts at the point (0.0) and ends at (2,-7) what is the magnitude of the displacement

Answer 1

|x| = √53

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the vector starts at the point (0.0) and ends at (2,-7) .

Thus, magnitude of displacement is;

|x| = √(((-7) - 0)² + (2 - 0)²)

|x| = √(49 + 4)

|x| = √53
