If an object changes direction while travelling will an object's displacement and distance travelled be different.
Some people believe that distance and displacement are simply different names for the same quantity. However, distance and displacement are not the same thing. If an object changes direction while travelling, the total distance travelled is greater than the displacement between those two points.
The magnitude of the displacement is always less than or equal to the distance because it is measured along the shortest path between two points.
When the direction of displacement does not change, the magnitude of the displacement and distance are the same. When a body travels in a straight line, for example, its displacement and distance are the same.

Answer:
The person is 187[m] farther and 70° south to east.
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by drawing a sketch of the location of the person and the truck, then we will draw the displacement vectors and finally the length of the vector and the direction of the vector will be measured in order to give the correct indication of where the person will have to move.
First we establish an origin of a coordinate system.
We can see in the attached schema that the red vector is the displacement vector from the last point to where the truck is located.
The length of the vector is 187 [m], and the direction is 70 degrees south to East.
Answer:
La aceleración necesaria para detener el avión es - 10.42 m/s².
Explanation:
Un movimiento uniformemente acelerado (M.U.A) es aquél cuya aceleración es constante y la velocidad de un objeto cambia a medida que el movimiento evoluciona.
Siendo la aceleración "a" el cambio de velocidad al tiempo transcurrido en un punto A a B, la velocidad inicial la velocidad que tiene un cuerpo al iniciar su movimiento en un período de tiempo y la velocidad final la velocidad que tiene un cuerpo al finalizar su movimiento en un período de tiempo, entonces en M.U.A se cumple:
Vf² - Vo² = 2*a*d
donde:
- Vf: Velocidad final
- Vo: Velocidad inicial
- a: Aceleración
- d: Distancia recorrida
En este caso:
- Vf: 0 m/s, porque el avión se detiene
- Vo: 50 m/s
- a: ?
- d: 120 m
Reemplazando:
(0 m/s)² - (50 m/s)² = 2*a*120 m
Resolviendo:

a= - 10.42 m/s²
<u><em>La aceleración necesaria para detener el avión es - 10.42 m/s².</em></u>
