What do you mean by magnitude of displacement . Explain |
|
Answer» Magnitude of displacement is technical way of saying distance as measured directly between the starting point and endpoint \tThe magnitude of dispalcement of a particle in motion for a given time is the shortest distance between the initial and final position of the particle in that time.\tThe magnitude is always less than or equal to the distance travelled by an object.That is total path length is greater than the magnitude of displacement.\tIf the motion of the particle is in one dimension i.e., along along a straight line, then the magnitude of displacement is equal to the total path lenght travelled by the object in the given time. |
