In case of a moving body displacement is less than and equal to the distance . explain why?

Answer»

ement is the SHORTEST distance b/w final and INITIAL point and distance is the ACTUAL path covered by moving body.When a body moves in a straight line then their distance and displacement would be same.If body moves in another trajectory (straight line path) then displacement would be LESS than actual distance for eg a body moves in circle ,after COMPLETING one circle then its actual path covered(distance) would be 2πr and shortest distance b/w initial and final point (displacement) would be zero.
