               FINAL ANSWER FOR CHAPTER 2:  KINEMATICS OF LINEAR MOTION

               1.    Distance  is  the  actual  (total)  distance  travelled  along  the  path  between  two  points  and  it  is  a  scalar
                     quantity.
                     Displacement is the shortest distance from initial point to final point in a straight line and it is a vector
                     quantity.
               2.    No.
               3.    Speed is the total distance travelled divided by time. Velocity is the rate of change of displacement.
               4.    (a)  No. If the velocity is constant, the speed must also be constant.
                     (b)  Speed. Speedometer only measures the magnitude not direction.
               5.    (a)  Average velocity is displacement per unit time.
                     (b)  Instantaneous velocity is the velocity at a particular instance or a particular position.
               6.     Instantaneous acceleration is the acceleration at a particular instance of time.
               7.    Constant velocity or at rest because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
               8.    Yes. A man in a car that is moving at changing velocity.
               9.    Yes. It is possible if the object is moving at a constant non-zero velocity.
