Question

Is the numerical ratio of displacement and distance for a moving object less than or more than 1 ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

===========================================

We know, the magnitude of displacement is the straight line distance between the initial point and the final point of the path of the moving body.

Displacement could be negative, positive, or zero. but the distance is always positive or zero when there is no motion.

So, the ratio of displacement to distance for a moving object is equal to less than 1.
