Answer 1

Answer:

1. An objects position is its distance and direction from a reference point.

2.Displacement is difference between its final and initial positions.

Explanation:

For any position we required a reference point and the distance between the reference point and the object.

For example:

an object is 40 m away from a table.

Here the distance is 40 m from a reference point that is a table.

Displacement is the difference between its final and initial position.

For example

A person walk 20 km and then returned back 10 km.

Here distance traveled by a person is 30 km. But displacement is (20 - 10) that is the difference between final and initial position.

So displacement is 10 km.
