If you walk 2 km from your house to a store and then back home what is your displacement?
Your displacement is 0 km, as it is the shortest distance between the initial and final points of your journey, regardless of the actual path taken. Since you returned home, your starting and ending points are the same, resulting in zero displacement.
Can distance be negative in physics?
No. Distance is never negative, and total distance travelled doesn't decrease during a trip. The distance from A to B is the same as the distance from B to A. Displacement, on the other hand, can be negative, and can decrease during a trip. The displacement from A to B is the same magnitude, but opposite sign, as the displacement from B to A. An example would be if you went from your home to a friend's house 1 mile to the east. After you reach your friend's house, you have travelled a distance of 1 mile and your displacement from your starting position is 1 mile. When you come back home from your friends house, you travel a distance of 1 more mile. Your total distance travelled is now 2 miles, but your displacement from your starting location is zero (because you are back where you started.) Distance does not have direction, and is always positive (or zero). Displacement has direction, and can be negative, positive, or zero.
What is displacement if a ball is thrown up with certain velocity it attains maximum height and comes back to the thrower?
The displacement of the ball from when it was thrown to when it returns to the thrower is zero, as the ball has completed a full round trip back to its initial position. Displacement is a vector quantity that measures the change in position from the initial point to the final point.
What is the major difference between distance and displacement?
Distance is how far you have traveled. For example, if you walk to school and back, you will have traveled twice the distance between the school and your home. Displacement is how far you have gone in your travels. For example, if you walk to school and back, your displacement is zero because you end up where you started.
What is the total displacement in one oscillation?
The total displacement in one oscillation is the maximum distance the object moves away from its equilibrium position in either direction before returning back to the equilibrium position. This total displacement is equal to twice the amplitude of the oscillation.
If on a round trip you travel 6km and then arrive back homewhat is your final displacement?
its final displacement will be" 0 " .......becoz u displacement is th shortest distance b/w initial and final point...............its the best answer .i bet...........thanks .....from yashika .......mine id of orkut..........yashikasharma28@yahoo.com

If you ride and go to bazar which is 5km away from your house to buy some grocery and return back then how many distance you have coveredhow much is your total displacement?
Total distance = 10 km Displacement = zero
Can distance ever be negative?
No. Distance is never negative, and total distance travelled doesn't decrease during a trip. The distance from A to B is the same as the distance from B to A. Displacement, on the other hand, can be negative, and can decrease during a trip. The displacement from A to B is the same magnitude, but opposite sign, as the displacement from B to A.

What is your distance if you ride a bike 500 meters then turn around and ride back what is your displacement?
If you come back to the starting point your displacement is zero
Do Macy's employees get an employee discount on-line?
Yes you can. It will be a back of the house discount just like an in store purchase
What is the meaning of back of the house in the term of hospitality?
BOH is used for catering business. Back of house is a place where the guests do not go into. It is an area to prepare the dishes, make the food, store the plates... anything that should not be seen by the guests
A man drives 3 km east from home to the store and then 2 km west to a friend's house what is his displacement from his starting point at home?
1km Reason: East and West are equal and opposite directions so if he goes 3km one way and then 2km back the other way he is only 1km away from where he started (3-2)

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.
What is retrolisthesis at c5 c6?
Displacement of a disc.
