If on a round trip you travel 6 km and then arrive back home :
What distance have you travelled ?
The numerical ratio of displacement to distance for a moving object is :
Figure ahead represents the displacement - time sketch of motion of two cars A and B . Find :
(i) the distance by which the car B was initially ahead of car A.
(ii) the velocities of car A and car B.
(iii) the time in which car A catches car B.
(iv) the distance from start when the car A will catch the car B.

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.
Give two differences between displacement and distance.
Can you suggest the kind of motion of a body from the following distance – time graph?

Calculate the distance and displacement in the following case:
A body is moving along a circular path of radius r. What will be the distance and displacement of the body when it completes:
`(3/4)` th of a revolution
