Ch.1 Distance ( 距離 ) & Displacement ( 位移 ) 1 Tai Wai Station Kowloon Tong Station displacement 4 km to the north distance 4.4 km
2 Class Exercise 1.1 Distance travelled = ?
3 Class Exercise 1.1 Distance travelled = = 180 m
4 Displacement ( 位移 ) = change in position The change in position is a straight line joining the start position ( 起點 ) and the end position ( 終點 ). Magnitude ( 量值 ) : Length of the straight line joining the start position and the end position. Direction ( 方向 ) : Direction of the straight line from the start position to the end position.
5 North ( 北 ) West ( 西 ) East ( 東 ) South ( 南 )
6 N 40° Direction = ?
7 N 40° Direction = 50° 50 ° E
8 N 60° Direction = ?

18 Class Exercise 1.3 (c) & (d)
19 Class Exercise 1.3 (c) & (d) 6 m East
20 Note: If the starting position and the end position are the same, the displacement is the same.
21 Class Exercise 1.4 (a) You walk from LPSMC to the Entrance C of the Tsuen Wan MTR station. Find the magnitude and direction of your displacement.
22 Class Exercise 1.4 (a) 6.2 cm 3.2 cm Magnitude = ? Direction = ?
23 Class Exercise 1.4 (a) 6.2 cm 3.2 cm Magnitude = (6.2 ÷ 3.2 ) × 100 = 194 m Direction = 180° + 77° = 257° (S 77 W) 78°
24 Class Exercise 1.4 (b) You meet your friend, Tommy, at Entrance C. He is going to the YMCA in Luk Yeung Sun Chuen. What is his displacement from Entrance C to the YMCA?
25 Class Exercise 1.4 (b) 3.2 cm Magnitude = ? Direction = ? 3.7 cm
26 Class Exercise 1.4 (b) 3.2 cm Magnitude = (3.7 ÷ 3.2 ) × 100 = 116 m Direction = 50° (N 50 E) 3.7 cm 50°
