Question
In which of the following cases of motion, the distance moved and the magnitude of displacement are equal?
Options
if the car is moving on straight road
if the car is moving on circular road
if the pendulum is moving to and fro
if a planet is moving around the sun
Solution
if the car is moving on straight road
