A driver travels by car at 100km/h(E) during a 1.0h period. He then travels for 2.0h at 80km/h(W). Determine the total displacement.

1. Draw a sketch.
2. Find the distance covered in each direction and mark it on your sketch.
3. Find the distance from the point where the driver is after travelling to the point where the driver was before travelling.

Post what you get! :)
