Question

a car travels from O to S and back to Q. find the distance and displacement of car​

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) As the car goes from O to P:

Since the car moves in a straight line, the distance will be equal to the displacement.

Total distance = Total displacement=360

The time taken by the car is=18 sec

Average speed of car is given by:

v

avg

=

Total time taken

Total distance

=

18

360

=20 m/s

Average velocity of the car is given by:

=

Total time taken

Total displacement

=

18

360

=20 m/s

(b)As the car goes from O to P and then back to O:

Total distance covered by car =360+(360−240)=360+120=480 m

The total displacement of car =240 m

Total time taken =18+6=24 sec

Average speed

=

24

480

=20 m/s

Average velocity

=

24

240

=10 m/s
