Answer 1

Answer:

displacement

Explanation:

When a body moves from one position to another, the shortest distance measured between the initial and the final positions of the moving body in a particular direction is called displacement.

Answer 2

Straight line distance between the initial position and final position of any body is known as ​displacement.

• Displacement is the difference between the final and initial positions of a body.
• it is a vector quantity that has both magnitude and direction.
• It does not depend on the path followed by the body.
• In circular motion, its value is equal to zero since the body comes back to its initial position after every round.
