“The distance traveled is greater than or equal to the magnitude of the displacement of the motion” True or False
True. This statement reflects the principle that the total path length (distance) is always equal to or exceeds the straight-line distance between the starting and ending points (displacement).
When are the distance and displacement of a motion the same?
When the motion is in a straight line or in 1 dimension without any change in direction.
Which of the following is true for the motion?
a) The distance traveled is the same as the displacement
b) The distance traveled is different than the displacement
c) The instantaneous velocity is not the same throughout the motion
d) The acceleration is constant and not zero
e) The object changes its direction of motion
a) The distance traveled is the same as the displacement
Which of the following cannot be determined from a velocity-time graph?
a) Displacement
b) Speed
c) Direction
d) Acceleration
e) Position
e) Position
Vector quantities have?
a) Magnitude only
b) Direction only
c) Magnitude and direction
d) Both size and direction
e) Both c and d
e) Both c and d
