Question
what must be included when describing the displacement of an object?
measurement and direction
direction and speed
total distance and position
speed and total distance
Brief Explanations
Displacement is a vector quantity. It requires both magnitude (measurement) and direction to be fully described. Speed is a scalar and not part of displacement. Total distance is also a scalar and different from displacement. Position alone is not enough to define displacement.
