|
|
a total length of the path by the object travel
|
|
|
a length between the two-point of reference
|
|
|
a change in direction of the object
|
Detailed explanation-1: -Distance is the length of the entire path traveled by an object from an initial to a final point. However, displacement is the shortest distance between the two points. Displacement is always less than or equal to the distance covered by an object.
Detailed explanation-2: -The distance is the total path length covered by an object irrespective of the direction i.e. even if a body comes back to its original position, distance is not zero. It is just a magnitude.
Detailed explanation-3: -Distance is the magnitude of displacement between two positions. Distance traveled is the total length of the path traveled between two positions.
Detailed explanation-4: -The total length of a path taken by an object to travel from one place to other is called Distance traveled .
Detailed explanation-5: -Distance is the total length of your path of motion.
