A car travels along a straight road 100 m east then 50 m west. Find distance and displacement of the car.

Given parameters:

    First move = 100m east

    Second move  = 50m west

Unknown:

Distance = ?

Displacement  = ?

Solution:

Distance is total path length covered

Displacement is the distance in a specific direction from start to finish.

            →

                       100m

                            ←

                               50m

So,

        Distance  = first move + second move  = 100 + 50  = 150m

       Displacement  = 100 - 50  = 50m due West
