Typically no. Displacement can be in multiple directions as a vector. of something is traveling only along x, then it would be true though this is usually not the case.

Displacement is the distance and direction from the start point to the end point.

If the motion starts and stops on the x-axis, then the displacement is equal to delta-x toward either the left or the right. But that would be rare and unusual.

Answer:

Explanation:

Rachel and Sarah are standing on horizontal ground . Let T₁ be the tension between Rachel and Sarah and Sarah is in between you.

Force = mass x acceleration

Apply this equation on Rachel

T₁ = 23 x 2 = 46 N

Let T₂ be tension between Sarah and me and it is inclined at 60°

Force = mass x acceleration
