a cow and a bird both travelled from point A to point B. The cow travelled in a straight line but the bird travelled along the curvedpath as shown below:
a) what is the distance travelled by the cow?
b) what is the distance travelled by the bird?
c) which one of them has more displacement?
a) distance travelled by cow is 15 m .
b)distance travelled by bird is 30m .
c)both bird and cow have the same displacement . As displacement is the shortest path from one point to another . So , from A to B the displacement is 15 m .
b)distance travelled by bird is 30m .
c)both bird and cow have the same displacement . As displacement is the shortest path from one point to another . So , from A to B the displacement is 15 m .
