Displacement is different from distance because?
Well distance is the total lengh travelled but displacement is the distance from the starting point to the ending point(when you join the 2 points)
The total distance an object moves from its starting point is what?
When an object moves, it travels some distance. Distance depends on speed and time traveled.How far you get while traveling is the displacement. Displacement and distance are different.Displacement is the difference from the starting point to the ending point. It is a vector, the vector with direction towards the end point from the starting point and magnitude, the separation.Distance is a scalar, magnitude only, and that is what most people mean by how far they travel.
Ray that connects the starting to the end point?
There is no end point, a ray is never ending but has a point to represent the beginning
What is distance and direction of an object's change in position from the starting point?
The answer is Displacement
Is displacement more like the length of a rope that is pulled tight or the length of a coiled rope?
Displacement is more like the length of a rope that is pulled tight, since displacement is the direction from the starting point and the length of a straight line from the starting point to the ending point. The length of a coiled rope describes distance, since that is simply the length of the pah between two points.
What measures distance and direction from a starting point to an ending point?
hi
What measures the distance and direction from a starting point and to a ending point?
A vector.
What Measures the distance and direction from a starting point and a ending point?
A vector.
Includes distance and direction of the stopping point from the starting point?
Displacement includes the distance between the starting and ending points and the direction in which you travel.
Displacement is different from distance because?
Well distance is the total lengh travelled but displacement is the distance from the starting point to the ending point(when you join the 2 points)
What are circles?
Circles are a never ending object. They have no starting and no ending point. They have a center point and from the center to the edge of the circle is the same distance around the whole object.
If you circle a winding road up a mountain your displacement is the same as your distance?
Starting and ending poInt
What is the distance and direction of an object from the starting point called?
Displacement.
What are the starting and ending point of circle?
A circle has no starting or ending point of a circle. Hope this helps!

Is the distance and direction of an object's change in position from the starting point?
This term is called displacement.
What Has a starting point and ending point?
a line segment
