Can distance ever be negative?

No. Distance is never negative, and total distance travelled doesn't decrease during a trip. The distance from A to B is the same as the distance from B to A. Displacement, on the other hand, can be negative, and can decrease during a trip. The displacement from A to B is the same magnitude, but opposite sign, as the displacement from B to A. An example would be if you went from your home to a friend's house 1 mile to the east. After you reach your friend's house, you have travelled a distance of 1 mile and your displacement from your starting position is 1 mile. When you come back home from your friends house, you travel a distance of 1 more mile. Your total distance travelled is now 2 miles, but your displacement from your starting location is zero (because you are back where you started.)


An automobile with initial speed 4 point 15 m per s accelerates uniformly at 2 point 7 m per s 2 and after 4 point 8 s the final speed is 17 point 11 m per s what is the displacement after 4 point 8 s?

Since the car accelerates uniformly, its average speed during the interval is1/2 (initial speed + final speed) = 1/2 (4.15 + 17.11) = 10.63 m/s.The distance covered is (average speed) x (time) = (10.63) x (4.8) = 51.024 meters.If the motion during the 4.8 seconds was all in the same direction along a straight line,then that same 51.024 meters is also the displacement during that time.If, instead, it happened to take 4.8 seconds to go around a circle with a circumferenceof 51.024 m, then the displacement over the 4.8 seconds is zero, since the starting lineis also the finish line.


Why is car called 2 liter when you can fit more than .2 liter of fuel in?

It is not the size of the gas tank, it is the displacement volume of all the cylinders during once cycle of all the cylinders put together.
