she has to leave her bike and take a taxi. What is
the distance covered by her bike during the day?
What is the displacement?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance covered by bike=10+5=15km. As she came back by the same shortest path her displacement is 0

Answer 2

She rides bike from her home to office =10km

she rides the bike half of the distance from office to home=5km

Therefore :-

Distance= 10km+5km=15km

Displacement of bike =5km

Displacement of Jasleen=0
