Question

what is distance equal to displacement​

Answer 1

Distance is a scalar quantity and Displacement is a vector quantity. DISTANCE AND MAGNITUDE OF DISPLACEMENT WILL BE EQUAL when an object is tavelling in a straight path that is rectilinear path. Distance and magnitude of the displacement will equal when an object is travelling in straight path.

Answer 2

hey mate here is your answer...

Distance and displacement is equal when there is a uniform motion..

Uniform motion = travel equal distance in equal time interval in a straight line…

I.e , constant speed + constant direction= constant velocity…

Now ; velocity= displacement / timeSpeed = distance/ time..

When the body is in uniform motion , speed and velocity is equal….

I.e , displacement= distance
