The location of a particle has changed. What can we say about the displacement and the distance covered by the particle?
Neither can be zero
One may be zero
Both may be zero
One is +ve, other is -ve
Get Answer
When location of a particle has changed, it must have covered some distance and undergone some displacement.
The displacement of a body is zero. The distance covered
is zero
is not zero
may or may not be zero
depends upon the acceleration
The numerical ratio of displacement to distance for a moving object is
always less than 1
always equal to 1
always more than 1
equal to or less than 1
Which of the following can be zero, when a particle is in motion for some time?
Distance
Displacement
Speed
None of these
A person moved from to on a circular path as shown in figure. If the distance travelled by him is , then the magnitude of displacement would be : (Given )
From
An athlete completes one round of a circular track of radius in . What will be his displacement at the end of ?
Zero
(a) Total time of motion is .
As time period of circular motion is so in athlete will complete 5 revolution i.e., he will be at starting point i.e., displacemet zero.
A particle moves east then north then west. The distance is
(c) . (c)
A particle moves from to . The magnitude of displacement is
Average velocity
Which of the following is not possible for a body in uniform motion
Both (a) & (b)
In , a particle goes from point to point , moving in a semicircle of radius (see Figure). The magnitude of the average velocity is
