10 - Learn Distance and Displacement in Physics (Displacement Formula Vs. Distance Formula)

In this lesson we explain the difference between distance and displacement in physics. We start by explaining what the distance formula is and how it differs from the displacement formula.

The number line is used to show the difference between these two concepts in physics, and examples are worked so that the student can get practice.

I am from India. His accent and teaching method was so good that even i was able to understand this without using captions. Thank you sir

this guy is a chad for explaining it times easier

Sir, I'm a college student who was CONFUSED after my physics class and since I watched your video it cleared up all my confusion. I'm not super religious but may God bless you for creating these videos to help so many of us, Thank you sir!!

I recently got a pre-apprenticeship in the electrical trade and was told I needed a physics credit to become an apprentice, and signed up for a course. When I tell you I was stressing out so much until this video!!! THANK YOU, such clear instructions unlike my course D:

I appreciate your videos. Your way of teaching is spot on for me, please continue. I plan to learn all these courses. I will say though I am getting quite confused on the order of your videos. Either You Tube is not showing all your videos or they are labeled in a different way then I am used to.

If I pass my tests, it would be all because of you sir, thank you so much. The way you explain it is amazing!

I like watching him draw and narrate his number lines

[marcosmacoeove]

Makes me think like I'm map reading. Plotting and azimuth on a compass.
Really good stuff.

Thank you thank you good I spend my half day on understanding displacement thank you for explaining in such a easy way

[gabrielmaghokmathiang]

It’s very understanding. Thank you Sir

[abdullah]

I’m really appreciate that. Now I understood the point, even the English is not my first language. Thanks a lot

[helicopterpeace]

you are very delightful! Thanks for being an exceptionally great instructor!

REFERENCE POINT= 0 always tripped me, I thought 0 is that initial position... THANK YOU SO MUUCH!!

[WordofLifeMinistry_MTC]

OMG...you're a bomb, Sir👏👏Your explanation is very explicite. Thank you very much, I love it!!!🥰

"A lot of people go through the first couple chapters of physics not really know what displacement is". Nahh I was doing delta is equal to millions last night. I caught on real quick. Took some practice but I was up until 1 am. I cannot believe I can do physics with my eyes closed. I cannot believe this is physics. I love it so far.

Amazing video, thanks alot🔥🔥🔥 it really helps

[malkiatsingh]

Amazing teacher thanks from the bottom of my heart

[mitsuru]

Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank ❤️❤️❤️

[yasirtaher]

Amazing video this boosted my understanding of distance and displacement👍
