Learn how to find the total distance traveled particle motion

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the total distance traveled by a particle, focusing on the concept of displacement and the importance of absolute value in determining total distance. It covers the process of finding the velocity function, identifying points where the particle changes direction, and calculating the total distance by summing the absolute values of displacements. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the difference between displacement and total distance, and verifies calculations to ensure accuracy.
