Displacement is a vector quantity. So, you incorporate the vector calculations when you try to determine the resultant vector. This is the shortest path from the starting point to the endpoint. If they are moving on one axis only, you use sign conventions. For motions moving to the left, use the negative sign. If it's moving to the right, then use the positive sign. Now, it the object moves 2 km to the left, and 2 km also to the right, the displacement is zero.

Displacement = 2 km - 2km = 0

Generally, the equation is:
<span>Displacement = Distance of motion to the right - Distance of motion to the left</span>

Technician A says that a power-assisted brake system reduces stopping distances compared to a nonpower-assisted brake system. Te
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Technician B

Explanation:

here on analyzing both the statements from technician A and technician B. The Statement from Technician B is more logical and correct. That the power-assisted brake system reduces the force that the driver must exert on the brake pedal.

The power-assisted brake system does not reduce the distance of stopping. What it does is it reduces the force to be applied by the driver. Thus, making the drive more comfortable.
