Can anybody explain me :1)velocity2) displacement |

Answer» A displacement is a vector whose length is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of a point P. It quantifies both the distance and direction of an imaginary motion along a straight line from the initial position to the final position of the point. Velocity is a physical vector quantity; both magnitude and direction are needed to define it. The scalar absolute value of velocity is called "speed", being a coherent derived unit whose quantity is measured in the SI as metres per second or as the SI base unit of. The distance travelled in a specified direction is displacement whereas the displacement coverage by an object in specified direction is velocity |
