answered-by-expert Expert Answer

4 differences between distance and displacement

1- distance is the total length travelled while distance is the shortest distance travelled

2- distance is scalar quantity while displacement is vector quantity

3-distance can be zero but cannot be negative while displacement can be zero as well negative.

4-displacement can not be greater than  distance however distance can be greater  than displacement.

question 1) A body is projected vertically upwards from top of the tower with the velocity of 30m/s. if it takes 8sec to reach on ground then what is the height of the tower (g=10ms). what is the total distance travelled by the body. question 2) A body is dropped from the height of h covers by 64% distance in its last second.find out thte total tim of the ball and height. question 3) A body projected vertically upward, At the half  of its maximum height its velocity becomes 20m/s, what is the maximum height attained by the body. question 5) A body is projected vertically upward from ground. the time of flight is 8 sec find the velocity of projection.
