Question

a body thrown vertically upwards reachs the maximum height. then it returns to ground caculate the distance and displacement.

Answer 1

since the body returns to its initial position therefore the displacement is 0.

the distance traveled is 2h_max=u^2/g

Answer 2

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

Distance= h+h =2h

Also we know that the shortest distance between initial and final positions the body is coming back to the initial position the net displacement is zero

hope u got me
