Answer» a) what is the DISTANCE covered by the CAR : Distance is the total path covered by the object.hence distance travelled=100+25=125m b)what is its DISPLACEMENT? Displacement is the shortest path between SOURCE and destination.Car moves 100m forward(east) and then 25m backward(WEST)so displacement =100-25=75m
