What is measured using a unit appropriate for the distance between two points?

In scientific measurements, however, length is the distance between two points. That distance might be the diameter of a hair or the distance from earth to the moon. The SI base unit of length is the meter, m. A baseball bat is about 1 m long. Metric rulers and meter-sticks are used to measure length. FIGURE 12 compares a meter and a yard.

What modulus of the ratio distance to displacement is always which unit?

The modulus of the ratio of distance to displacement is always less than or equal to 1, as displacement is the shortest distance between two points. The unit for this ratio is dimensionless, as it is a pure number without units.


What are the differences between displacement and velocity?

Displacement describes the distance between two points in space, and the direction of this distance relative to either of the two points. Velocity describes the rate of motion, per unit time, for any instant during the travel between these two points. ie. How fast an object traveled. Velocity must also describe the direction of travel relative to either of the two points.
