Question

A body thrown vertically upward reaches a maximum height h. It then returns to ground. Calculate the distance travelled and the displacement.

Answer 1

Answer:

A body threw vertically upward reaches a maximum height "h". It returns to the ground. Calculate the distance travelled and displacement.

 

Answer;

As we know that the total length of the journey is the distance,

Distance = h+h = 2h

 

also we know that the shortest gap between the initial and final positions the body is coming back to the initial position the net displacement is zero.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Distance =2hand displacement =0
