Question

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

Answer 1

Yes, zero displacement is possible if an object has moved through a distance. Suppose a ball starts moving from point A and comes back to point A then it will cover a certain distance but the displacement of the ball will be 0 as the distance between the initial and the final position of ball will be 0.

Answer 2

ANSWER

Yes, an object can have zero displacement even when it has moved through a distance.This happens when final position of the object coincides with its initial position. For example,if a person moves around park and stands on place from where he started then here displacement will be zero.
