Question

The units of the displacement are in the SI system

  1. Meter
  2. Kilometer
  3. Centimeter
  4. Radius

hintHint:

  • Displacement and distance have the same units since displacement and distance are used for measuring the difference in position. But displacement has magnitude as well as direction. However, we will not include the direction in units.

The correct answer is: Meter


    • Displacement is the spatial distance between two locations measured along the shortest path between them. Since it is a vector quantity, it has a magnitude as well as the direction. It can be zero if the initial position is same as the final position.
    • Distance is always added up since they are considering the actual path.
    • Distance between the two locations is always greater than or equal to the magnitude of the displacement between the same locations.
    • The SI unit of displacement is the meter (m) and it is considered as the basic unit of SI units.
