Question

A man lives his at 5:30amfor amorning walk returns at 6:15 am find his displacement at this time interval

Answer 1

Answer:

0 km

Explanation:

What is Displacement :

• Displacement is the shortest distance covered by an object

• Displacement can either be equal to distance or lesser than it but it can never be greater

Given :

• Man starts at 5:30 for his morning walk and returns back at 6:15

To find:

• Displacement of the man

Displacement in the above case will be equal to 0 kilometres as the man would again come back to the starting position and hence shortest distance covered will be 0 kilometres

Displacement = 0 km

Answer 2

Given :-

• Man start his morning walking from where he live at 5:30 A.M.

• And he returns at his initial position at 6:15 A.M.

To Find:-

• Displacement of man.

Solution :-

❝According to the Question ❞

He start his journey from his initial position he lives and goes to his Final position and again return his initial position.

Here, the displacement is Zero.

∴ The displacement of man is 0
