Solution
The correct option is B d = 7 cm, s = 3 cm
Step 1: Identify starting point and ending point.
Distance = Path length = AB + BC
= 5 cm + 2 cm
= 7 cm
Displacement = Shortest distance between start and end.
= AC = 3 cm.
d = 7 cm, s = 3 cm
Step 1: Identify starting point and ending point.
Distance = Path length = AB + BC
= 5 cm + 2 cm
