Question

an object has moved through a distance. can it have a zero displacement? if yes, support your answer with an example​

Answer 1

Answer:

yes it can have zero displacement

Explanation:

As displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final position of the object , so when an object is moving in a circular path , and completes a round and returns on the same position from where it has started , so final and initial position are the same . So , we can conclude that the object has zero displacement

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes, an Object's displacement can be 0.

If it's initial and final position coincides.

Because, Displacement is the smallest distance between two places.

Just like if it's moving along a circular path, It's initial and final position coincides with each other, hence it's displacement will be zero.
