Question

an object has moved through a distance .can it have zero displacement

Answer 1

Yes, zero displacement is possible if an object has moved through a distance. Suppose a ball starts moving from point A and it returns back at same point A, then the distance will be equal to 20 meters while displacement will be zero

please mark me as a brianliest

Answer 2

Answer:

yes it can

Explanation:

lets take an example

suppose a man started at point O and walked 5 m north ,

then he walked back 5m south and came back to starting point.

in this example though the man traveled 10 m

he is at his starting point .

so ,the distance is 10 m

and displacement is 0m.
