If South East becomes North, North East becomes West and this trend is continued, what will be the original West become?

Detailed Solution for Test: Distance And Direction- 1 - Question 3
  • If South-east becomes North and North East becomes West, therefore, the whole figure moves through 135º. Hence, West will be South-East.
  • See, Actual figure is rotating 135º anticlockwise.
  • So, When West will be rotated by same degree anticlockwise. It will hold the place of south-East.

Test: Distance And Direction- 1 - Question 9

Namratha walks 14 metres towards west, then turns to her right and walks 14 meters and then turns to her left and walks 10 metres. Again turning to her left she walks 14 metres. What is the shortest distance (in metres) between her starting point and her present position?  

Detailed Solution for Test: Distance And Direction- 1 - Question 9

Let's break down Namratha's movements step by step:

  1. First Movement: She walks 14 meters west.
  2. Second Movement: She turns right and walks 14 meters north.
  3. Third Movement: She turns left and walks 10 meters west.
  4. Fourth Movement: She turns left again and walks 14 meters south.

Now, let's analyze her position.

  • After the first movement, she's 14 meters west of the starting point.
  • After the second movement, she's 14 meters west and 14 meters north of the starting point.
  • After the third movement, she's 24 meters west and 14 meters north of the starting point.
  • After the fourth movement, she moves 14 meters south, so she's now 24 meters west and at the same latitude as her starting point (because the south movement cancels out the north movement).

To find the shortest distance between her starting point and her present position, we just need to calculate the straight-line distance (which is the horizontal distance since her vertical displacement is zero).

Since she is 24 meters west of her starting point, the shortest distance is:

Distance=24 meters\text{Distance} = 24 \text{ meters}Distance=24 meters

So the correct answer is 24 meters (Option 3).

Test: Distance And Direction- 1 - Question 12

Lakshay starting walking towards west and goes 10km. Then he turns left and goes 8km. He again turns left and goes 18km. In which direction is he now from his starting point? 

Test: Distance And Direction- 1 - Question 13

Ayush starts from his house and moves towards South. He walks 100m, then turns left and walks 200m, turns right and walks 500m. How far is he from his house?

Detailed Solution for Test: Distance And Direction- 1 - Question 13

We can solve this problem using the Pythagorean theorem.

First, let's break down Ayush's movements:
1. He walks 100m south.
2. He turns left (which means he is now facing east) and walks 200m.
3. He turns right (which means he is now facing south again) and walks 500m.

Now, let's determine his horizontal (east-west) and vertical (north-south) displacements.

Horizontal displacement:
Ayush only moved horizontally during step 2, where he walked 200m east. Therefore, his total horizontal displacement is 200m.

Vertical displacement:
Ayush moved vertically during steps 1 and 3. In step 1, he walked 100m south, and in step 3, he walked 500m south. Therefore, his total vertical displacement is 100m + 500m = 600m.

Now we can use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the distance between his starting point (his house) and his final position:

Distance = √(horizontal displacement^2 + vertical displacement^2)
Distance = √(200m^2 + 600m^2)
Distance = √(40,000m^2 + 360,000m^2)
Distance = √(400,000m^2)
Distance = 200√10m

So the correct answer is 3 (200√10m).

Test: Distance And Direction- 1 - Question 16

A man walks 1 km to East and then he turns to South and walks 5 km. Again he turns to East and walks 2 km. After this he turns to North and walks 9 km. Now, how far is he from his starting point?

Detailed Solution for Test: Distance And Direction- 1 - Question 16

The last position of the man is P and OEP is a Right angled triangle in which
EP = 3 km and OE = 4 km
Thus,
OP = √(32 +42)
OP = √25
OP = 5 km.
