1. A car moves 100 m due east and then 25 m due west.(a) What is the distance covered by the car? (b) Whatis its displacement?

Answer»

A car travels 100m due east and 25m due west.a) what is the distance covered by the car :

Distance is the total path covered by the object.hence distance travelled=100+25=125mb)what is its displacement?

Displacement is the shortest path between source and destination.Car moves 100m forward(east) and then 25m backward(west)so displacement=100-25=75m

a car covered 125 m distance and displacement is 75m

a car covered 125m distance and displacement is 75m

total distance covered by car = 100+25 = 125m displacement = 100-25 = 75m

a) the distance covered by the car is 125m & b) it's displacement is 75

distance =125 mdisplacement=75 m is the correct answer of the given question

a car coverd 125m distance and displacement is 75m

A car covered 125m distance and displacement is 75 m

distance=125m displacement=75m is answer to your question

a car covered 125m distance b
