New cards
Is distance vector or scalar quantity? What does that mean?
A scalar quantity! It means it has a magnitude (amount/value) only
3
New cards
Displacement
is a STRAIGHT LINE measure between start and stop

How do you find displacement?
First you find the Magnitude by using Pythag and creating a right triangle! then after that you can find velocity
