NEET Physics Distance & Displacement Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Distance | (i) Total path length covered |
| (b) Displacement | (ii) Shortest path between two points |
| (c) Average Speed | (iii) Total distance/time |
| (d) Average Velocity | (iv) Displacement/time |
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Distance is defined as the total path length covered by an object, while displacement refers to the shortest path between two points. Average speed is total distance divided by time, and average velocity is displacement divided by time.
