o 1 2 3
as shi​

Answer 1

Answer:

pathlength 8m

displacement -2m

as the total distance covered is 8m and displacement is the shortest path covered so the particle is moving form A to B no matter which path it follows so displacement -2m

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option will be /-

8 Metre , -2 Metre

_____________________

Hence, here

Pathlength -/ 8 Metre

Displacement -/ -2 Metre

Explanation:

Displacement can be defined as shortest distance between two points in a specific direction.

Here, Initial position = 0

Here, Final position = B or -2

Here Displacement = 2 m because the shortest distance between two points (-2 and 0) in a definite direction is 2metre.
