Michael travels 250 miles to North but then backtracks to South for 105 miles to pick up a friend. Calculate Michael's total displacement. 

  • A 189 mi N
  • B 145 mi N
  • C 145 mi S
  • D 355 mi S
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

Michael travels 250 miles to the North and then backtracks to the South for 105 miles. Therefore, his net displacement is the difference between the two distances, which is 250 - 105 = 145 miles to the North.
