Question

Differentiat between Distance and Displacement​

Answer 1

Answer:

Distance is a scalar quantity.

that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion.

Displacement is a vector quantity .

that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.

Answer 2

Answer:

DISTANCE:

1) The actual path travelled by an object is called distance.

2)Distance is a scalar quantity (direction is not required).

3)Distance covered during motion cannot be zero.

DISPLACEMENT:

1)The minimum distance travelled by an object from starting point to the finishing point is called displacement.

2)Displacement is a vector quantity (direction is required).

3)Displacement covered during motion can be zero.
