When is the magnitude of displacement equal to the distance?
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.
Define displacement.
Write the SI units for measurement of distance and displacement.
The table below shows the distance travelled by two vehicles A and B during each second:
| Time (s) | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
| Distance travelled by A (m) | 0 | 20 | 80 | 180 | 240 | 300 | 360 | 420 |
| Distance travelled by B (m) | 0 | 10 | 40 | 90 | 160 | 250 | 360 | 490 |
Which vehicle is moving with uniform velocity?
Distinguish distance and displacement.
Four cars A, B, C, and D are moving on a levelled road. Their distance versus time graphs are shown in Fig. 8.2. Choose the correct statement.
Write a note on the following:
Nautical mile
Displacement can be zero but distance never.
Displacement magnitude can be greater than the distance traveled by the object.
