∙ 9y agoThe distance an object travels in a certain period of time without regard to direction is known as the object's displacement. Displacement is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude (length) and direction. It is calculated by subtracting the initial position of the object from its final position. For example, if an object starts at position (2, 4) and ends at position (6, 8), the displacement would be (4, 4).
To put it simply, displacement is the distance an object travels in a certain period of time without regard to direction.

The distance an object travels in a certain period of time without regard to direction is known as displacement. Displacement is a vector quantity that measures the straight line distance and direction between the initial and final positions of an object.
The distance an object travels in a certain period of time without regard to direction is called displacement. Displacement is a vector quantity that specifies the change in position of an object without considering the path taken. It is measured in units of length (e.g., meters, kilometers).
A direct wave is a radio wave that travels directly through space without getting refracted by the ionosphere. In other words, it travels straight to the receiving antenna without being refracted.
The magnitude of displacement is equal to distance when an object moves in a straight line without changing direction. This occurs when displacement and distance have the same direction.
No, distance refers to the amount of ground covered between two points without considering direction. Direction is a separate concept that indicates the orientation of the movement between the two points.
Yes, if an object moves along a straight path in a single direction without reversing its direction, then its distance and displacement will be the same.

VELOCITY IS THE SPEED AND DIRECTION IN WHICH SOMETHING MOVES. Velocity is the distance an object travels per unit of time, in a specific direction; velocity = distance / time, in a specific direction. The distance an object travels per unit of time, without regard to its direction of travel, is called Speed. If a vehicle travels around a curve in the road at a steady 50 kph, its Speed is staying the same but its Velocity is changing due to the change in its direction of travel. 50 kph northbound and 50 kph eastbound are the same Speeds but different Velocities.

A point that travels a distance without any angular deviation.
Speed describes the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled, if the direction is not specified.

Distance is a scalar quantity, meaning it only has magnitude and no direction. It is a measure of how much ground an object has covered during its motion, without considering the direction.
Speed :)
Distance is a scalar quantity, as it only has magnitude (how much ground an object has covered) without direction. It represents the length of the path taken by an object.
Speed is the rate of distance traveled per unit of time without regard to direction. It is a scalar quantity and is given by the formula speed = distance / time. It tells us how fast an object is moving.
