A body thrown vertically upwards reaches a maximum height H which then turns to the ground calculate the distance and displacement


skyme: total distance is 2h . and displacement is zero
sujatamishra39pa41j1: displacement is zero as the final and initial point are same and distance is h + h that is 2h
siddhantbp03ov2qba: total distance is 2H and displacement is 0

Hey there!

We know,
Distance is the total length covered by a body in unit time.
So, distance in going upward = H
       distance in coming down to ground = H
Total distance= h+ h = 2H

And we know,
Displacement is the shortest length covered by a body between its initial position and final position.
As here it is same. So, displacement is zero.

Hope It Helps YoU!



srijay: ya its very easy
ReshmaPathak: as well I know distance is shortest length
asshah2001pa3tdc: distane is actual path traveeled by an object. whereas displacement is the shortest length
maddy84: body will be reach ground by 8 secs only.. let it try

Heya........!!!!

_______________________________

Before taking out displacement and distance let us know what's distance and displacement .

=> Distance = distance is the actual path covered by the object .

=> Displacement = displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position .


Now according to the question the body is thrown upwards and it reaches a height 'H '.

After that it will return to ground that is it will again cover the distance ' H ' .

So , it's DISTANCE = H + H = 2H .

As the body returns to the initial position and we know that displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position
So , it's DISPLACEMENT = 0 .

Hope It Helps You ☺

ReshmaPathak: correct brilliant keep it up you can do better
rohit710: :-)
Anny121: @rohit710 bro ... Very nice ... Keep it up :)
rohit710: :D Thanks a lot sis ^_^
Anny121: welcome bro :D
pranjal104: it good answer ever well i thought
John123jg: thanks a lot bro
NikhilMirkute: if it falls in a parabola then the displacement should be the range of the projectile
rishabhmishra7354: its displacement, will be 0 because the initial point and final point in upward motion is consider to be same so there is no displacement. and the distance travelled by it will be 2H
rishabhsinghkun: since distance =d and body goes upward and then frm upward to downward therefore distance =2d and displacement =0 as the intial and final position of a object is same..
