distance is the measure of the length between two points where as displacement is the shortest distance between the points.
No such conversion is possible. Feet are a measure of distance or linear displacement whereas a radian is a measure of angular displacement. The two measure different things and it is not possible to convert form one to the other.
displacement is the vector quantity and the distance is scalar quantity, displacement is the shortest distance between two points.
two things that describe velocity is distance and time.
-- Distance is a scalar quantity, whereas displacement is a vector. -- Distance is the integral of magnitude of displacement. -- Magnitude of displacement is always less than or equal to distance. -- The two quantities are equal when the motion is in a straight line.
Answer: The magnitude of displacement is equal to distance traveled when motion is in a straight line
No. Distance can be greater than displacement, but not less. The magnitude of the displacement between two points is also the minimum possible distance of a path between the same points.However, the displacement can be zero if the distance is not if the object's starting point and ending point are the same.
A millimetre is a measure of distance or length that is, it measures linear displacement. A degree is a measure of angular displacement. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid without further information.
the shortest distance between two points.
Distance is the scalar quantity which does not have any direction but the displacement is the both the distance and direction. Hence displacement is the vector quantity. So the answer for the above question is DISPLACEMENT
Before giving an answer to this question i will like to make note that velocity and speed are two different terms which become same only in case of straight line motion/ 1-D motion. Speed is the rate of change of DISTANCE with respect to time ,while Velocity is the rate of change of DISPLACEMENT with respect to time. Distance is the total path covered by a body between any two points while Displacement is the shortest distance between the two points.... Distance b/w two different points can never be zero or negative will displacement can be zero or negative.
You do not. A cubic metre is a measure of volume, whereas a metre is a measure of displacement or distance. The two measure different things and, according to the basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.
