Is displacement a scalar quantity ?
If on a round trip you travel 6 km and then arrive back home :
What distance have you travelled ?
A body is moving in a straight line and its displacement at various instants of time is given in the following table
| Time (s) | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
| Displacement (m) | 2 | 6 | 12 | 12 | 12 | 18 | 22 | 24 |
Plot the displacement-time graph and calculate
(i) Total distance travelled in the interval 1 s to 5 s.
(ii) Average velocity in time interval 1 s to 5 s.
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.

Give an example of a body which covers a certain distance, but its displacement is zero.
A motor car slows down from 72 kmh−1 to 36 kmh−1 over a distance of 25 m. If the brakes are applied with the same force
calculate
- total time in which car comes to rest
- distance travelled by it.
Show the difference between distance and displacement with the help of a diagram.
