Question

A car goes from point A to B and then come back from B to A. What is the displacement and average velocity.

Answer 1

Displacement is 0
And average velocity is 0

Answer 2

Answer:

The displacement and velocity both are zero in the above given case.

Explanation:

• It is given that a car moves from point A to B and then comes back from B to a and displacement in the given situation will be equal to zero.
• Since the total shift from initial to final point is zero.
• The velocity is given by displacement per unit time.
• Since displacement in this case is zero, then velocity will be 0/(T ) which is again equal to zero.
• Hence displacement and velocity both are zero in this case.
