Question

(8) for physical conditioning the soccer team from you school runs 5 times around the track. the track is 440 m long. what distance does the soccer team run and what is their displacement?
distance = ______________________________
displacement = ______________________________

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate Distance

Distance is total path length. Multiply laps (5) by track length (440 m):
$5 \times 440 = 2200$ m

Step2: Determine Displacement

Displacement is net change in position. After 5 laps (a whole number of circular laps), the team returns to the start. So displacement is 0 m.

Answer:

Distance = 2200 m
Displacement = 0 m
