info@snapandsolve.comDistance is a scalar quantity that refers to how much ground an object has covered during its motion. It is the total path length traveled by the object. Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to the change in position of an object. It is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of the object, along with the direction.
To sketch the coordinates of W(5,5) and Y(7,9), plot the points on a Cartesian plane where the x-axis represents the first number and the y-axis represents the second number. Point W is at (5,5) and point Y is at (7,9).
The distance between W(5,5) and Y(7,9) can be calculated using the distance formula:
Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²)
= √((7 - 5)² + (9 - 5)²)
= √(2² + 4²)
= √(4 + 16)
= √20
= 2√5.
