A monkey moves 6m north, 8m east, and 10m vertically upward on a pole. What will be the displacement from the initial reference point?
Consider, east direction to be x-direction, north direction to be y-direction and vertically upward direction to be z-direction.
This is an important point do clear it.
so final Displacement is
= √(x^2 + y^2 + z^2)
= √ (8^2 + 10^2 + 6^2)
= √200
= 10 √2 m.
