Distance & Displacement

Distance & Displacement Scalar and Vector quantities

Distance & Displacement Scalar – a quantity that is fully described by a magnitude (numerical value) alone.

Distance & Displacement Vector – a quantity that is fully described by both magnitude and direction

Distance & Displacement Scalar or Vector? 5m

Distance & Displacement Scalar or Vector? 30 m/sec, East

Distance & Displacement Scalar or Vector? 5 mi., North

Distance & Displacement Scalar or Vector? 20 degrees Celsius

Distance & Displacement Scalar or Vector? 4000 Calories

Distance & Displacement Distance – is a scalar quantity that refers to “how much ground and object has covered” during its motion -the actual path

Distance & Displacement Displacement – is a vector quantity it is an object’s overall change in position -the shortest path from point A to point B

Distance & Displacement What is the displacement of the cross-country team if they begin at the school, run 10 miles and finish back at the school?

Distance & Displacement What is the distance and the displacement of the race car drivers in the Indy 500?

Distance & Displacement NOTE displacement is direction-aware, When an object changes its direction of motion, heading the opposite direction effectively begins to cancel whatever displacement there once was

Distance & Displacement What is the coach's resulting displacement and distance of travel?
