The displacement of the flight. Scalars or vectors?


Displacement is a vector quantity. It describes the change in position of an object and has both magnitude and direction. In the context of flight, displacement would indicate how far and in which direction a flight has moved from its starting point to its destination. Scalars, on the other hand, only have magnitude and do not include direction. An example of a scalar may be the total distance traveled during the flight.
