Question

A displacement is what

Answer 1

Explanation:

A displacement is a vector whose length is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of a point P. It quantifies both the distance and direction of an imaginary motion along a straight line from the initial position to the final position of the point.

Answer 2

Answer:

Displacement is in both physics and chemistry.

Explanation:

Displacement according to Physics-

A displacement is a vector whose length is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of a point P.

Displacement according to Chemistry-

Displacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its compound. Both metals and non-metals take part in displacement reactions. Example : Reaction of iron nails with copper sulphate solution.
