Question

a football player runs 20 meters to the right and then 5 meters to the left what is the football players displacement

Answer 1

15 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that displacement refers to how far you are from where you started, not the overall distance travelled.

So, if you run 20m to the right, and then go 5m to the left, you will be 15m overall from your starting point (to the right).
