while john is traveling along an straight interstate highway, he notices that the mile marker reads 260. john travels until he reaches the 150-mile marker and then retraces his path to the 175-mile marker. what is john's resultant displacement from the 260-mile marker?

Answer 1

He starts at 260 and ends up at 175. What does that tell you about resultant displacement?

Answer 2

Think about it

Answer 3

When we measure displacement, you measure the distance between the Initial Position (260) & the Final Position (175).

Displacement = Difference between initial position & final position.

Initial - Final = Displacement

260 - 175 = 85 m.
