12 wrz 2022 · Distance traveled x Total, is the total length of the path traveled between two positions. In the previous problem, the distance traveled is the sum of the magnitudes of the individual displacements:
- 3.1: Position, Displacement and Distance
Distance traveled \(x_{total}\) l, is the total length of...
- 3.1: Position, Displacement and Distance
As shown in Figure 2.5, distance is different from the length of a straight line between two points. The distance you drive to your friend's house is probably longer than the straight line between the two houses.
12 sty 2024 · Distance traveled \(x_{total}\) l, is the total length of the path traveled between two positions. In the previous problem, the distance traveled is the sum of the magnitudes of the individual displacements:
Distance is the length of the path taken by an object whereas displacement is the simply the distance between where the object started and where it ended up. For example, lets say you drive a car. You drive it 5 miles east and then 3 miles west.
The displacement is simply the difference in the position of the two marks and is independent of the path taken when traveling between the two marks. The distance traveled, however, is the total length of the path taken between the two marks.
Distance traveled x Total x Total, is the total length of the path traveled between two positions. In the previous problem, the distance traveled is the sum of the magnitudes of the individual displacements:
12 mar 2024 · Explain the relationship between position and displacement. Distinguish between displacement and distance traveled. Calculate displacement and distance given initial position, final position, and the path between the two.
