measures the length of the path of a particle in motion. The displacement is the shortest path from the initial to the final position of the particle. Given the velocity function , the displacement on a time interval is computed by
. While the distance is the total length of the path taken by the particle. On the same time interval and velocity, the distance is calculated by .
.
Answer and Explanation:
(a)
The displacement is computed by getting definite integral of the velocity function over the given time interval.
Evaluate at the limits of the integral to get the displacement.
