Clarify the difference.
Distance and displacement
Define displacement. State its unit.
Differentiate between distance and displacement.
A ball moves on a smooth floor in a straight line with uniform velocity 10 m s-1 for 6 s. At t = 6 s, the ball hits a wall and comes back along the same line to the starting point with the same speed. Draw the velocity-time graph and use it to find the total distance travelled by the ball and its displacement.
Figure shows the velocity-time graph of a particle moving in a straight line.

(i) State the nature of motion of particle.
(ii) Find the displacement of particle at t = 6 s.
(iii) Does the particle change its direction of motion?
(iv) Compare the distance travelled by the particle from 0 to 4 s and from 4 s to 6 s.
(v) Find the acceleration from 0 to 4 s and retardation from 4 s to 6 s.
Give two differences between displacement and distance.
Draw displacement – time graph for the following situation:
When a body is moving with uniform velocity.
