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 |
