Question

Magnitude of the displacement is equal to the distance only when object is in ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Linear motion

Explanation:

Distance and Displacement are equal when the object travels in a straight line.

plz mark as the brainliest.....thank you

Answer 2

Answer:

Magnitude of the displacement is equal to the distance only when the object is in straight path.

When the object travels in a path that has some turns, the magnitude of displacement is lesser than the magnitude of the distance.

Displacement sometimes can be zero but path travelled can not be zero.

TERMINOLOGY –

➸ Distance is said to be the total length of path travelled by an object.

➸ Displacement is said to be the shortest distance between the initial position and the final position of the object.

➸ Speed is said to be the total distance travelled by the object in total time.

➸ Velocity is is said to be the total displacement upon time.

➸ Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

➸ Linear motion is travelling in a straight path whereas curvilinear motion is travelling in curved path.
