E. Numerical Problems1. 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»

100_25(due to going in West)=75

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

HEY!!

The distance will be = 100 + 25 = 125m

A = 100 m on east from west and again east to west = 25m

Displacement = 100 - 25 = 75 m.

distance=100+25=125mdisplacement=100-25=75m

Ans 100+25= 125

100-25=75so Distance =125Displacement =75
