It is represented as an arrow that points from the starting position to the final position. For example- If an object moves from A position to B, then the object's position changes. This change in position of an object is known as Displacement. Displacement = Δx=xf−x0.
Is displacement denoted by S?
The origin of the symbols for displacement (∆s) and distance (∆s) is spatium, the Latin word for space (like the space between two locations).
What is the symbol for displacement?
When dealing with motion in one dimension along a straight line, displacement is usually represented by the symbol s. When considering coordinate systems in two or three dimensions, displacement is usually represented by the symbol Δr.
