Displacement is distance combined with?
Displacement consists of distance and direction.
How does distance and displacement differ?
Distance is a scalarwithout direction and displacement is a vector with distance and direction.
Why displacement is called vector quantity?
Displacement has a direction, thus a vector.
What is distance and displacement?
how far you go and displacement is going in a straight line
Does displacement include distance and direction?
Yes it does!
Displacement is distance combined with?
Displacement consists of distance and direction.
What is the relationship between displacement and direction?
Displacement is just distance traveled and a direction. For example 40m east is a displacement distance
How does distance and displacement differ?
Distance is a scalarwithout direction and displacement is a vector with distance and direction.
Explain what is the negative sign in hook's law mean?
It means that the force is in a direction opposite to the displacement of the spring.It means that the force is in a direction opposite to the displacement of the spring.It means that the force is in a direction opposite to the displacement of the spring.It means that the force is in a direction opposite to the displacement of the spring.
Why dispacement can be negative?
When a body covers a displacement in the opposite direction of our reference direction then displacement will be negative.
Why displacement is called vector quantity?
Displacement has a direction, thus a vector.
What is displacement in physical?
Displacement is a vector quantity. This means it has both size AND direction. Therefore, displacement is defined as distance in a given direction. Rather then simply 'distance'. Distance itself is a scalar quantity... and only has size. No direction. 20m - Distance. 20m upwards - Displacement.
Displacement has both magnitude and what?
Magnitude and Direction :) -hayley
Is displacement a scalar quantity?
Yes. Displacement requires a direction and hence is a vector
Does displacement depend on direction?
yes
If the displacement is negative 2 north and represents a positive displacement What is the direction?
south
Slope of a displacement time graph?
It is the instantaneous speed in the direction in which the displacement is measured.
