Motion – Distance & Displacement (Part -2)

  • Distance is the actual path length travelled by an object in a given time.
  • Displacement is the shortest distance between the initial & final position.
Distance Displacement
  •  A physical quantity which has both magnitude and direction is known as a Vector quantity.
  • A physical quantity which has only magnitude is known as a Scalar Quantity.
  • Examples of Vector Quantity ⇒ Displacement, Velocity, Acceleration
  • Examples of Scalar Quantity ⇒ Distance, Speed, Mass, Time
  • SI Unite of both Displacement and Distance is Meter.
  • The magnitude of the displacement is not always same the distance travelled (it can be less or equivalent).
