Question

If a car, starting from point P, goes to point Olse
Figure 1.2 b) and then returns to point P, how much
distance has it travelled and what is its displacement​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Distance travelled by the car is the net summation of the distance between the 2 points

For example

OP=12

THEN

Distance travelled by the object is

OP +PO

12+12

24 (double)

Where as in case of displacement it will be zero because displacement is difference between final and initial value
