Question

A particle moves along the x-axis from x i to Xf which of the following values of the initial and final coordinate, which isn't in the displacement with the largest magnitude? explain please​

Answer 1

Answer:

Displacement = Xf - Xi

Explanation:

Let Xf = 10 and Xi = 5

displacement = 10 -5 = 5

if Xf = -10 Xi = 5

displacement = -10 - 5= - 15 ( negative displacement)

if Xf= -10 and Xi = - 5

Displacement = -10 - (-5) = -10 + 5 = -5 negative displacement

largest magnitude of displacement among 5 , -15 , -5 is -15

hope u got ur answer,

Answer 2

Displacement = $Xf - Xi$

Let  $Xf = 30$ and $Xi = 25$

displacement $= 30 -25 = 5$

if $Xf$ = -30 $Xi$ = 25

displacement = -30 - 25= - 55 ( negative displacement)

if $Xf$= -30 and $Xi$ = - 25

Displacement = -30 - (-25) = -30 + 25 = -5 negative displacement

The biggest magnitude of displacement among 5 , -55 ,  is -55
