Question

For one-dimensional motion displacement is the change in position and is given by

A) Δx = x2 − x1
B) Δx = (x2 + x1) /2
C) Δx = x2 + x1
D) Δx = 2(x2 + x1)​

Answer 1

Answer:

A is correct

Explanation:

displacement it is the the shortest distance covered between the initial and final position

Answer 2

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Displacement is the shortest path covered by the object i.e v-u where v is final velocity and u is initial velocity. According to the question x2 is final velocity and x1 is initial velocity.
