Distance Displacement
1. Length of the actual path 1. Shortest length between initial
travelled by an object. point and far point of an object.
2. It is scalar quantity. 2. It is a vector quantity.
3. It remains positive and can’t be 0 3. It can be positive, negative or 0.
or negative. 4. Displacement can be equal or
4. Distance can be equal to lesser than distance but can
displacement (in linear path). never be greater than distance.
Speed (s):
Velocity (v):
Speed of an object in a particular direction is named as velocity, i.e., it is the
displacement of body in unit time.
It is a vector quantity.
Average velocity: It is given by the arithmetic mean of initial velocity and
final velocity for a given period of time.
Acceleration (a):
The rate of change of velocity is termed as acceleration.
It is represented as:
[Note: All independent quantities are taken along the x-axis and dependent
quantities are taken along y-axis.]
Let us assume,
t = in time t
OA = CD = u
OE = CB = v
OC = AD = t
BD = BC – DC (Change in velocity)
AD is parallel to OC.
∴ BC = BD + DC = BD + OA
∴ BC = v and OA = u
We get v = BD + u
∴ BD = v – u ...(1)
In velocity-time graph, slope gives acceleration.
BD = v – u
at = v – u
∴ v = u + at
Let us assume,
t = in time t
∴ Distance travelled by the object is given by area enclosed with OABC in the
graph.
∴ s = OABC
OA = u, OC = AD = t and BD = at
We get
t = in time t
