Question

A body vertically thrown upwards reaches a max height h. it then returns ground. The distance and displacement travelled by body respectively are​

Answer 1

Answer:

2h and 0

Explanation:

distance = h+h =2h (because it first goes up and then comes down)

displacement is 0 because there is no difference in final and initial position.

Answer 2

Answer:

A body is vertically thrown upwards reaches a max height (h). It then returns ground.

Displacement :

Displacement is the minimum distance between starting and ending point.

As body is thrown vertically upward from ground and it returns to ground. The distance between the starting and ending point will be zero.

_____________________________________

Distance:

Distance is a actual length of path travelled by the body.

As body reaches heigh(h) and returns from height (h).

It will travel the distance of 2×heigh(h).

_____________________________________

Hence, distance travelled is 2×height (h) and displacement is zero.
