what you mean by displacement?

shobhitsharma0: Distance is a scalar quantity.Displacement is an object's change in position, only measuring from its starting position to the final position. ... If your starting and ending position are the same, like your circular 5K route, then yourdisplacement is 0

A displacement is a vector whose length is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of body during its motion.

Answer:

Displacement is an object 's change in position only measuring from its starting position to the final position

divinemothersluv: it's the shortest distance and a vector quantity also

shobhitsharma0: what is short distance

divinemothersluv: it means the very small distance between the initial point and final point

divinemothersluv: by the if you don't know what is shortest distance then why are written it in ur answer

shobhitsharma0: i know what is short distance

shobhitsharma0: and it,s you answer

shobhitsharma0: Distance and displacement are different quantities, but they are related. If you take the first example of the walk around the desk, it should be apparent that sometimes the distance is the same as the magnitude of the displacement. This is the case for any of the one meter segments but is not always the case for groups of segments. As I trace my steps completely around the desk the distance and displacement of my journey soon begin to diverge. The distance traveled increases uniformly,
