What is the rate of displacement of a body called?
The rate of displacement of a body is called its velocity.
Is the distance covered by a body may be greater than a magnitude of the displacement?
yes,displacement is the shortest distance covered by a body,so distance covered by a body may be greater than the displacement.
Is the distance covered by a body may be greater than the magnitude of displacement?
yes,displacement is the shortest distance covered by a body,so distance covered by a body may be greater than the displacement.
A body travels from a-b with displacement 5km and from b-c with displacement 4km. The same body again travels from c-a through b .Find the displacement made by the body while moving from 1a-c 2journey?
displacement in second case is zero as the body returns to its initial point.
Write the formula for the work done on a body when a force acts on the body in the direction of its displacement?
WORK = FORCE x DISPLACEMENT
Why dispacement can be negative?
When a body covers a displacement in the opposite direction of our reference direction then displacement will be negative.
When can a body have same distance and same displacement?
Distance is equal to magnitude of displacement when the motion is in a straight line.
Is the displacement of a body same as the actual distance traveled by the body?
yes of course..
What are displacement?
vector representing a change in position of a body or point with respect to a reference point, Displacement may be linear or angular.
Give an example where displacement is zero but distance is not?
when the body moves circularly from a point 'A' to a then the displacement will be zero(displacement is the shortest diatance from the initial point to final point) and the distance will not be zero.
The quantity that can be zero if a body remains in motion for sometime is?
Displacement
What are displacement transducers?
vector representing a change in position of a body or point with respect to a reference point, Displacement may be linear or angular.
