Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is distance

Explanation:

The total path length travelled by in a given interval of time is called distance.

Answer 2

Answer:

The total path length traveled by a body in a given interval of time is called​ as distance.

Explanation:

The total path length traveled by a body in a given interval of time is called​as distance.

For example Let's imagine a car has started its journey at 'O' and traveled to a point 'A' for 20 Km towards North in time 1 hr, and then traveled for another 20 Km towards East, in time 1/2 hr, to reach the point 'B'.

Then we can say that the total distance traveled by car in one and half hours is 20 Km towards North + 20 Km towards East = 40 Km.

But the displacement is given as the shortest distance between point 'O' and point 'B' which is 20√2. As it forms a right-angled triangle.

Therefore, the total path length traveled by a body in a given interval of time is called​ as distance.
