Question

11. The displacement of a car is positive. Can the distance covered by it be zero? Justify
your answer.​

Answer 1

Answer:

No, because if the moving object comes back to its initial position the distance travelled is not zero.

Explanation:

Though the moving object comes back to its initial position the distance travelled is not zero.

Displacement is calculated on the basis of initial and final position. If initial and final position are same, displacement is zero. But distance is the total distance covered from initial to final position. So, it cannot be zero in this case.
