Question

A particle travels from A to B path shown in the figure then the displacement of the particle is​

Answer 1

Answer:

if a particle travel from A toB displacement is represented as

Answer 2

Answer:

The displacement of the particle is​ $4\sqrt{2}$ m

Explanation:

• The term "displacement" refers to a shift in an object's position. It is a vector quantity with a magnitude and direction. The symbol for it is an arrow pointing from the initial location to the ending place.
• An object's position changes, for instance, if it moves from position A to position B. Displacement is the term used to describe this shift in an object's position.
• It is also reffered as shortest distance between two points.
• Here in the figure the hypotenuce of the dotted trangle is the displacement which is
  $\sqrt{4^2+4^2}= 4\sqrt{2}$
• So the displacement of the particle is​ $4\sqrt{2}$ m
