Is displacement a scalar quantity ?
If on a round trip you travel 6 km and then arrive back home :
What distance have you travelled ?
Can displacement be zero even if the distance is not zero? Give one example to explain your answer.
A body at rest is made to fall from the top of a tower. Its displacement at different instants is given in the following table:
| Time (in s) | 0.1 | 0.2 | 0.3 | 0.4 | 0.5 | 0.6 |
| Displacement (in m) | 0.05 | 0.20 | 0.45 | 0.80 | 1.25 | 1.80 |
Draw a displacement-time graph and state whether the motion is uniform or non-uniform?
Figure given below shows a velocity-time graph for a car starting from rest. The graph has three parts AB, BC and CD.

State how is the distance travelled in any part determined from this graph .
From the displacement – time graph shown given below calculate :
- Velocity between 0 – 2 s.
- Velocity between 8 s – 12 s.
- Average velocity between 5 s – 12 s.

A satellite makes a complete round along its circular orbit. What is its displacement?
A particle is moving in a circular path of radius r. The displacement after half a circle would be
Choose the correct option.
Assertion: If the displacement of the body is zero, the distance covered by it may not be zero.
Reason: Displacement is a vector & distance is a scalar quantity.
