can an object have negative displacement if yes support your answer with an example
Answers
Answer:
Yes, surely it can. Let me give you an example:
Explanation:
A boy goes to his friend's house which is straight 2.5 km away from the school where he was standing. After meeting his friend, he went back but instead of going to school he went to his home which was straight 1 km away from the school in the opposite direction of his friend's house, so his is at -1 km.
Hope it helps!
NOTE: Distance and Speed can't be negative while Displacement and Velocity can. The reason is distance and speed are scalar quantities while displacement and velocity are vector quantities.
Answer:

Explanation:
Ex:
If you are travelling from Place A to B which is at a displacement 50m and then if you are returning back from B to A then we will call it negative displacement
Nothing but the change in direction
