A player hits a home run and goes around all 4 bases. What is the total distance he travelled?
Tap to reveal answer
There is 90 feet between each base and distance does not depend on direction. Distance is scaler therefore, the batter travels 360 feet.

Velocity is a vector so direction matters. Therefore this creates a right triangle with the two isosceles side having a velocity of
. Therefore, the hypotenuse is
when you perform Pythagorean theorem.
