Question

what is difference between path length and displacement

Answer 1

total distance covered by a body called distance and the shortest distance covered by a body called displacement

Answer 2

Differences:

Distance is Scalar quantity , while displacement is vector

Displacement is distance with direction

As a result, displacement can never be greater than distance

Velocity is always in a straight line, while distsnce if graphed , may even go three dimensional.

Distance covered over unit time is speed. Displacement over unit time is velocity.
