Question

Can displacement be zero even when distance travelled is not zero? Justify​

Answer 1

Answer:

Displacement can be zero even when distance is not zero. Consider two points A and B such that AB = 5 m. When a car travels from A to B and then back from B to A, distance = 5+5 = 10 m. Displacement = Minimum distance between final(B) and initial position(B) = 0.

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Suppose a car A is moving around a circular park. It takes two rounds pf the park. Distance travelled is 4πr but displacement is zero as it came to its original place
