Can displacement be zero even if distance is non zero?
On a three dimensional basis yes it can. Fir instance, if an object is moving directly towards or away from you the angular displacement can be zero though the distance displacement changes.
What equals the displacement on a velocity-time graph?
Displacement is the area under the v-t graph.
Explain how the displacement of an object could be zero while the distance traveled was 150 miles?
Displacement is only the distance from the starting point. As long as you return to where you started, then you can travel 1.0 x 10^999999999999 miles and still have a displacement of zero.
When two numbers equal zero?
Any number minus itself equals zero. Any number plus its opposite equals zero. Any number times zero equals zero.
Can you have a zero displacement?
Sure - unless it is a ship or air vessel
What is greater distance or displacement?
Distance is greater , because displacement can be zero ,but, distance cannot be zero.
When can displacement equal to zero?
Zero Quality
When can displacement be equal to zero?
Zero Quality
Can displacement be equal to zero?
Zero Quality
Give an example where displacement is zero but distance is not?
when the body moves circularly from a point 'A' to a then the displacement will be zero(displacement is the shortest diatance from the initial point to final point) and the distance will not be zero.
Can the distance travelled by a particle be zero when displacement is not zero?
The distance travelled by a particle cannot be zero when displacement is not zero because unlike distance which is a scalar, displacement is a vector quantity implying that it has both direction and magnitude.
Can the distance travelled by the particle be zero when the displacement is not zero?
The distance travelled by a particle cannot be zero when displacement is not zero because unlike distance which is a scalar, displacement is a vector quantity implying that it has both direction and magnitude.
Does displacement have to be in a straight line?
Displacement of a straight line is zero...
Can displacement be zero even if distance is non zero?
On a three dimensional basis yes it can. Fir instance, if an object is moving directly towards or away from you the angular displacement can be zero though the distance displacement changes.
Can you have zon zero displacement and a non zero average velocity?
No.
If displacement of a particle is zero?
If displacement of a particle is zero in a uniform circular motion, then the distance travelled by that particle is not zero, kinetic energy is constant, speed is constant and work done is zero
Why displacement is zero in a circular motion?
When you run in a circle, your initial and final starting point is the same, which results in the displacement being zero. Keep in mind that your distance will NOT be zero.
