What is Displacement ?

Displacement Displacement is defined as the change in the position of an object. It is a vector quantity and has a direction and magnitude. It is represented as an arrow that points from the starting position to the final position. For example- If an object moves from P position to Q, then the object’s position changes. This change in the position of an object is known as Displacement. Let the position of point $P$ at time $t_{1}$ be described by position vector $\vec{r}_{1}=x_{1} \hat{i}+y_{1} ...
