The magnitude of displacement is equal to distance traveled when motion is in a straight line.
displacement
Yes. It always is when the motion is all in a straight line.
displacement
If the motion is all in a straight line, then Displacement = (1/2) x (acceleration) x (time spent accelerating)2
Displacement of a straight line is zero...
The slope of the ant's displacement vs. time graph The total displacement divided by the time.
The distance in a straight line to the nearest part of South Dakota from Winnipeg is approximately 274 miles. In a straight line it is approx 439 to Sioux Falls and 493 to Rapid City. These are straight line distances, not driving distances.
The slope of the ant's displacement vs. time graph The total displacement divided by the time.
Displacement
A body can have the same distance and displacement when it moves in a straight line without changing direction. This means the body covers the same distance as the magnitude of its displacement.
Displacement and distance are numerically equal if an object travels in a straight line. However, when indicating displacement, the direction should also always be indicated.
when the motion is in a straight line.
To calculate displacement from a displacement graph, find the area under the curve. If the graph is a straight line, you can subtract the initial position from the final position. If the graph is not a straight line, calculate the integral of the graph to determine the total displacement.
The displacement-time graph for a body moving in a straight line with uniformly increasing speed would be a straight line with a positive slope. As time increases, the displacement of the body also increases at a constant rate.
The slope of the ant's displacement vs. time graph The total displacement divided by the time.
A displacement-time graph for a boy traveling with uniform velocity to school would be a straight line that slopes upwards, indicating a constant rate of motion. The y-axis represents displacement (distance from the starting point) and the x-axis represents time. The slope of the line would represent the velocity of the boy.
