Question

a car travels frm point A to B with the speed of 30km/hr and returns back to A with the speed of 50 km / hr find its displacement

Answer 1

displacement of the car is zero. since displacement is the shortest distance from the initial position to the final position. since the car is back to point A, the displacement is zero however the distance is not zero.

Answer 2

Since the car started from A (initial point) and ended on A (initial point) There is zero displacement. When an object returns back to its starting point, it has no displacement.


Hope it helps
