Question

Under what conditions is the displacement of a body be equal to distance travelled by the same body?

Answer 1

Explanation:

We know that displacement is a vector quantity and distance is a scalar quality.

Suppose you walk on a line PQR, say you walk from P to R and then back to Q.

Now your total displacement will be given by the equation PR – RQ because displacement considers direction. But, it is important to note that the distance travelled will be PR + RQ because the distance is a scalar quantity and doesn’t consider direction.

Answer 2

Explanation:

when the object is traveling in straight road. in that case displacement and distance remain same
