Let's learn how to calculate displacements from v-t graphs. We will see why the area under the v-t graph gives displacement. Created by Mahesh Shenoy.
Displacement is the straight-line path between the starting point and the endpoint of a journey i.e. the distance moved in a particular direction. Displacement is a vector. Displacement can be positive or negative, depending on which direction was taken as positive.
Displacement: Change in position of an object. We use the symbol Δ x for displacement, where Δ means "change." A vector quantity with units of distance . Distance: Total amount the object has moved. This depends on the whole path traveled, not just the starting and ending points. Distance traveled is always a non-negative number.
