Question

A ball is thrown upwards and it goes to the height 100 m and comes down
1) What is the net displacement?
2) What is the net distance?

Answer 1

"A ball is thrown upwards and it goes to the height 100 m and comes down.

Net displacement: 0

Net distance: 200 m

Solution:

Net displacement:

The net displacement define the change in the position of the object. In this case, the "initial and final" points both are same. So the displacement measured here is zero.

Net distance:

In this case, the ball has covered a distance of 100 m while throwing upwards and while returning downwards it has to travel a distance of 100 m. So, total "distance" traveled by the ball is 200 m.

$\left( Upward\quad 100\quad m \right) \quad +\quad \left( Downward\quad 100\quad m \right) \quad =\quad 200\quad m"$
