The distance and Displacement travelled by skier is 17m and 16 m

What is Distance and Displacement?

Distance is the length of the actual path taken by object.

Displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final position.

The SI unit of both distance and displacements is meter (m).

In this case,

Distance = 32m - 65m + 16 m

                 = 17 m

Here ,

Displacement  = Initial position - Final position

= 32m -16m  = 16m

Hence , The distance and displacement of the skier are 17m and 16m.
