How does displacement differ from distance?
Distance is a straight line, while displacement includes curves.
Displacement only considers the total path traveled, while distance includes direction.
Distance is the total path traveled, while displacement is the straight-line measurement from start to finish.
Distance and displacement are the same measurement.
Velocity is speed with __________________________.
