Question

Is it possible to travel a great distance without any displacement? Prove your answer.

(Please check my grammar and answer) Thanks!

Answer 1

Yes, because distance is simply how far an object traveled. While displacement is how far is your distance for your starting point. It means when you traveled 100m then you went back from your starting point your displacement will become zero and your distance is 100m. Therefore, you traveled a great distance without displacement.

Answer 2

check my answer :)

Answer 3

While displacement is how far is your distance for your starting point.
should be: While displacement is how far your distance is from your starting point.

Answer 4

Yes, because distance is simply how far an object traveled. While displacement is how far is your distance for your starting point. It means when you traveled 100m then you went back to your starting point your displacement will become zero and your distance is 200m. Therefore, you traveled a great distance without displacement.

Answer 5

that is typo

Answer 6

made a couple of corrections..

Answer 7

Yes, because distance is simply how far an object traveled. While displacement is how far is your distance from your starting point. It means when you traveled 1000m then you went back from your starting point your displacement will become zero and your distance is 1000m. Therefore, you traveled a great distance without displacement.

Is this correct?

Answer 8

Look at my answer, you still have the same issues as your original post.

Answer 9

Yes, because distance is simply how far an object traveled. While displacement is how far is your distance from your starting point. It means when you traveled 1000m then you went back to your starting point your displacement will become zero and your distance is 1000m. Therefore, you traveled a great distance without displacement.

Answer 10

why in your answer it became 200?

Answer 11

beacuse you travel for 100m and then you go back for another 100m, so it sums up to 200m

Answer 12

ohh i get it because 1000 for going to your destination and plus 1000 for going back

Answer 13

thanks

Answer 14

No problem! :)

Answer 15

Yes, because distance is simply how far an object traveled. While displacement is how far is your distance from your starting point. It means when you traveled 1000m then you went back from your starting point your displacement will become zero and your distance is 2000m. Therefore, you traveled a great distance without displacement.

Answer 16

is that the right answer?

Answer 17

Yes, because distance is simply how far an object traveled. While displacement is how far your distance is from your starting point. It means that when you traveled 100m and then went back to your starting point your displacement will become zero while your distance will be 100m. Therefore, you traveled a great distance without displacement.

I'd go for that.

Answer 18

It seems perfectly fine to me..

Answer 19

Thomas you still made the same mistake that you're not counting the distance travelled back to the starting point.

Answer 20

thanks
are you a physicist?
hehehe

Answer 21

Yes, because distance is simply how far an object traveled. While displacement is how far your distance is from your starting point. It means that when you traveled 100m and then went back to your starting point your displacement will become zero while your distance will be 200m. Therefore, you traveled a great distance without displacement.

Like this then, but that's not really the point here.

Answer 22

Trying to be one, heh!

Answer 23

Yes, because distance is simply how far an object traveled. While displacement is how far is your distance from your starting point. It means when you traveled 1000m then you went back to your starting point your displacement will become zero and your distance is 2000m. Therefore, you traveled a great distance without displacement.


so that is the final answer?

Answer 24

Yeap, it's final!

Answer 25

I honestly think mine is better.

Answer 26

yup i think yours has a better grammar

Answer 27

i will still choose my final answer because it seems better for me
