The word displacement implies that an object has moved, or has been displaced. Displacement is defined to be the change in position of an object. It can be defined mathematically with the following equation:
So let’s review and see if we can make sense of displacement in terms of numbers and equations. You can calculate an object's displacement by subtracting its original position, d 0 , from its final position d f .
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.
