Question

Find distance and displacement..
a-------4---------------------5-----------------------------6-----b

Answer 1

Answer:

Here, Distance and Displacement will be same because the path covered is straight.

Distance = 4+5+6 = 15

Displacement = 4+5+6 = 15

Answer 2

Answer:

Distance and Displacement :

1. \delta d = d_{1} + d_{2}
2. Displacement =\delta x = x_{f} - x_{0}
3. X_{f} = final position.
4. X_{0} = intial position.
5. \delta x = Displacement.
