A body have 0 displacement but not 0 distance how?
Walk around the block, ending up where you started. Displacement = (end location) minus (beginning location) = zero Distance = length of the bread-crumb trail = perimeter of the block = not zero
Does displacement always equal distance traveled?
No. Displacement is how far an object is from its original position. This means that if an object traveled in a circle and returned to its original point, it will have a displacement of 0 while the distance will be whatever the circumference of the circle was. Hope that helps.
What are the quantities on which the amount of work done depends and How are they related to work?
work depends on:FORCE and DISPLACEMENT. it is directly proportional to both of them. work can be calculated by the product of force and displacement. if displacement is in a certain direction to the applied force then work done is calculated by force*displacement cos(angle). work done becomes 0when:- *displacement is 0 or the initial point and final point are the same. *displacement is in perpendicular direction to force applied.
Examples of the displacement of an object may be 0 when distance traveled by it is not 0?
Displacement is a vector quantity that measures the change in position of an object. It can be zero even if the distance traveled is not zero when the object moves back to its initial position. For example, if a car drives in a complete circle and returns to its starting point, its displacement is zero since the initial and final positions are the same, even though the distance traveled is not zero.
How is work done by force measured?
You can measure the amount of work done with the formula W=Fd where W is work, F is force and d is displacement. The SI unit for work is joules (J) and if you're using thatformula, force must be in newtons (N) and displacement in meters (m). Remember that if the displacement is 0, work done is 0. If a person went around a track, and ended where he started, the displacement is 0. Displacement is the distance measures from where something starts and where it ends. Not necessarily the distance covered. Also, work is a vector quantity as is force and displacement. Hope this helps!

How displacement has to do with roller coasters?
Roller coasters often have loops and turns that make their final displacement different than their final distance. But, if the roller-coaster is a loop, the displacement will obviously be 0. If the displacement is not 0, it is measured in meters.
What is the displacement of the cross-country team if they begin at the school run 10 km and finish back at the school?
The displacement would be 0 because displacement is the distance between where you start and where you end so if you end in the same place you start, your displacement is 0.
Does displacement always equal distance traveled?
No. Displacement is how far an object is from its original position. This means that if an object traveled in a circle and returned to its original point, it will have a displacement of 0 while the distance will be whatever the circumference of the circle was. Hope that helps.
What is the distance and the displacement of the race car driverd in the Indy 500?
The distance is 500 miles because that is how far the race is run. The displacement is 0 miles because since the race starts and stops at the same point, they went 500 miles and didnt actually go anywhere.
Why the ratio of displacement to distance is never greater than 1?
The technical answer is that displacement is the vector sum of the distances. An example to illustrate the difference in less technical terms, distance travelled in one direction added to the same distance in the opposite direction will result in the total distance being twice the distance of each leg but the total displacement is 0.

If the average velocity of an object is zero in some time interval what can you say about the displacement of the object for that interval?
When the velocity is zero at the crossing of the time axis, the displacement must be a full maximum or minimum. Scroll down to related links and look at "Displacement - Velocity- Acceleration".
What does y equals 0 on a displacement- time graph represent?
The displacement, along the direction of measurement, is zero. It need not mean that the object is back at the starting point. The displacement-time graph, measuring the vertical displacement of a ball thrown at an angle, will have displacement = 0 when the ball returns to ground level but, unless you are extremely feeble, the ball will be some distance away, not at its starting point which is where you are. The use of such a graph is not unusual in the elementary projectile motion under gravity.
Why distance cannot be equal to zero?
0 isn't a real number. Distance: the extent or amount of space between two things, points or lines. 0 is not a amount as it is not a number and is the "Distance" were to be 0 then it wouldn't be any leanth away.
