Answer 1

Answer:

Displacement (symbolized d or s ), also called length or distance, is a one-dimensional quantity representing the separation between two defined points. The standard unit of displacement in the International System of Units ( SI ) is the meter (m). Displacement is usually measured or defined along a straight line.

Answer 2

Answer:

here is your answer

Displacement :

Displacement is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of the body- magnitude wise. Direction of displacement is considered from the initial position of the final position. The S.I. unit of displacement is metre (m).

● Displacement = Shortest path from initial to final position

= AC

=√(a+b)2 + (b+c)2 { by Pythagoras theorem }

=√225+81

=17.5 km
