7. The ratio of distance and displacement between X & Y in the following figure is ( ) A) 2/3 B) 1/2 C) 3/2 D) 1/3​

Answer 1

Answer:

distance 6+6+12+12cm or 3*12 cm

displacement 12+12cm or 2*12cm

ratio of distance to displacement is 3:4

Here is your answer ⤵️

Answer :

Now, for The ratio between distance and displacement

Distance = total pathway between two points

Displacement = shortest distance between two points

Now,

• Distance = 6 cm + 12 cm + 6 cm + 12 cm
• Distance = 12 cm + 12 cm + 12 cm
• Distance = 36 cm

Now,

• Displacement = 12 cm + 12 cm
• Displacement = 24 cm

Finally Ratio between Distance and Displacement

• $\sf \frac{Distance}{Displacement} = \frac{36 \: \: cm }{24 \: \: cm }$

• $\sf \frac{Distance}{Displacement} = \frac{\cancel{36}^{\: \: \cancel{12} × 3} \: \: \cancel{ cm} }{\cancel {24}_{\: \: \cancel{12} × 2} \: \: \cancel{cm} }$

• $\sf \frac{Distance}{Displacement} = \frac{3}{2}$

• $\sf Distance : Displacement = 3 : 2$

verified Answer ✓ : 3 : 2
