Question

do you agree with your friend who says the ratio of distance and displacement never be less than one.If so why?​

Answer 1

$Explanation$

━──━──━──━──━──━─━──━──━──━──━

˙❥˙As the magnitude of displacement always either less than or equal to distance travel. Hence, the numerical ratio of displacement to distance is either less than or equal to 1.

˙❥˙Distance and displacement are different quantities, but they are related. ... Since the displacement is measured along the shortest path between two points, its magnitude is always less than or equal to the distance.

Answer 2

Answer:

No

Explanation:

We know that distance is always positive but displacement can be positive , zero or negative..

If the case is negative . The ratio between the distance and displacement becomes negative which is absolutely less than 1 .

So ,

We cant say that ratio of distance and displacement never be less than one

It can be also less than 1 ..
