MCQ
Distance does not depend on $.............$
- AInitial point
- BFinal point
- CPath taken
- ✓Speed
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Speed
The distance depends on the final and initial points as these points define the path.
Distance also depends on the path chosen, the distance between same initial and final point with different paths can be different.
It does not depend on speed as whatever the speed may be, if the initial and final points and path remains same, the distance remains same.
