ہم معنی الفاظ
relocation (Often suggests a planned or organized move, while displacement can be sudden, accidental, or technical.)

When people must leave their homes and live somewhere else because of war, danger, or disaster.

ہم معنی الفاظ

متضاد الفاظ

When people lose their jobs because machines, computers, or other workers do the work instead of them.

استعمال کا انداز: the displacement of [workers] by [cause]
عام غلطی:

ہم معنی الفاظ
job loss (More general and informal; "displacement" is often used in economic or policy discussion to stress replacement by something else.)
متضاد الفاظ
job creation (Refers to new jobs being made, which counters the effect of displacement.)

physics: distance and direction

In physics, how far something has moved from the start to the end point, in a straight line and with a direction.

استعمال کا انداز: the displacement of [object] from [point] to [point]
عام غلطی:
Learners often confuse "distance" and "displacement." Distance is how much ground is covered; displacement is the straight line from the start point to the end point, with direction.

rest (If an object stays at rest, its displacement is zero.)

The amount of water or other liquid that an object pushes away, or the total space inside the cylinders of an engine.

استعمال کا انداز: [ship/engine] has a displacement of [amount]
عام غلطی:

ہم معنی الفاظ
capacity (For engines, "capacity" is close in meaning, but "displacement" is the standard technical term.)
متضاد الفاظ
lightweight (A ship described as lightweight has low displacement compared with a heavy, high-displacement vessel.)
