Question

when is the magnitude of displacement equal to the distance ?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Under what condition will the magnitude of displacement be equal to the distance travelled by an object? Answer: When an object moves in a straight line without coming back, it's displacement and distance magnitude will always be equal.

Answer 2

Answer:

When an object moves in a straight line without coming back, it’s displacement and distance magnitude will always be equal.

Why is it not equal when travelling backwards?

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.
