Displacement is a vector quantity while distance is a scalar quantity. so in case of displacement, it depends on final position. For example:- If a man walks on a circle, then if he completes one round then his displacement will be zero because the man is at same position as start position. But, his distance travelled will not be zero; it is equal to circumference of the circle.
The magnitude of displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final position. In case of a particle completing one full round around a circle the displacement is ZERO. Because the initial and final positions are one and the same
-- Displacement is the straight-line difference between where you ended and where you started, regardless of the route you actually took. -- Distance is every inch you covered on the way there, including every curve, round-the-block, double-back, and side-trip to see the sites. -- Distance can never be less than displacement.
displacement is 0 because the initial position is same.
Yes. If you end up where you started, your displacement is zero, but the distance you travel is the actual amount of ground covered. For example, if you made a round trip of 50 miles, your displacement would be zero miles, but your distance would be 50 miles. This is because the final position and the initial position are the same. Round trips always have a displacement of zero.
Displacement is distance from starting point. If the object is always travelling in the same direction then they are the same. If the object turns round, the distance would still be increasing, however the displacement would be decreasing at the same rate.

friction daw ehh
How to calculate the volume for an irregular shape? Well, this is easy. First let me tell you the materials you need for this experiment.1. Displacement can2. Tripod Stand3. A Beaker4. A measuring cylinder5. A thread6. Water7. You irregular objectSteps:Place your displacement can on your tripod standPlace your beaker right below the spout of your displacement canfill the displacement can to its brimlet the water flow out of the spout into the beakerwhen it has stopped, replace your beaker with a measuring cylindertie your irregular object to your piece of thread, make sure it is tightslowly lower your irregular object into the displacement canyou will see water flowing out of the spout while you do thatafter your irregular object is at the bottom of the displacement can, read your measuring cylinder at eye levelExtraIf you see an round curve when you are reading the measurementread the lower line at eye levelYou have found the volume of your irregular object! Congratulations.
displacement is 0 because the initial position is same.
A round-trip ride to school and back
Total path is distance Where as the straight line is the displacement In case of a body going aroung a circle completing one full round, the distance is 2piR But the displacement is ZERO There by distance is a scalar and so it does not have direction But displacement is a vector. Because of vector addition we get displacement in this case as ZERO

A cylinder is a long round object with flat circular ends.
