how displacement and velocity can be negative.
Displacement is the distance between an initial and final point, while velocity is the rate at which an object changes its position in a given direction.
Displacement and velocity are related as displacement is the change in an object's position over time, while velocity is the rate of change of an object's displacement over time.
Yes, an object's displacement can be zero while its velocity is not. This can happen if an object moves back and forth between two points, causing its displacement to cancel out to zero but its velocity to remain constant.
Average velocity is the total displacement of an object divided by the total time taken, while instantaneous velocity is the velocity of an object at a specific moment in time. Average velocity gives an overall picture, while instantaneous velocity gives a more precise picture at a specific moment.
Velocity is represented as the slope of a position-time graph. A steeper slope indicates a higher velocity, while a flatter slope indicates a lower velocity.
