Question

A stone is projected vertically upwards from the ground a height of 25 m. If it reaches the point of
projection after some time, then the distance and displacement of the stone are
a) 25 m, 50 m
b) 0 m, 50 m
c) 50 m, 25 m
d) 50 m, 0 m
​

Answer 1

Answer:

(D)

Explanation:

It will cover distance of 50 m because stone reaches to height of 25 m and then returns back to initial positions.

So it will cover 25m in upward direction and 25 m downward direction.

Hence Distance =25m +25m =50m

As the stone return back to their point of projection Hence Displacement =0
