Question 1

What is the formula for calculating displacement?

  • βˆ†r = r' + r
  • βˆ†r = r' - r
  • βˆ†r = r Γ— r'

πŸ’‘ Hint: Look for the subtraction of vectors.

Question 2

True or False: The position vector can only represent locations in three dimensions.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how many dimensions we discussed.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Two particles are moving: Particle A at (1, 1) moves to (4, 4). Particle B at (2, 2) moves to (5, 5). Calculate the displacement vectors for both and determine which particle underwent a greater displacement.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Calculate each step carefully, keeping track of each component.

Question 2

A car moves from point (3, 2) to (6, 8) and then to (10, 14). Calculate the total displacement from its original position to its final position.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Split the total journey into segments and calculate displacements for each segment.
