NEET Physics Distance & Displacement Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Distance | (i) Straight path between initial and final positions |
| (b) Displacement | (ii) Total path length covered |
| (c) Uniform motion | (iii) Same speed throughout |
| (d) Non-uniform motion | (iv) Varying speed during travel |
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii
a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Distance refers to the total path length covered by an object, while displacement is the straight path between the initial and final positions. Uniform motion involves constant speed, while non-uniform motion involves varying speeds, aligning with the definitions provided in the NCERT context.
