distance 40 cm

Answer 2

DISPLACEMENT = 0 cm

DISTANCE = 40 cm

WHERE'S DISPLACEMENT IS THE SHORTEST STRAIGHT LINE PATH BETWEEN INITIAL AND THE ENDING POINT AS YOU CAN SEE THE PERSON WENT BACK TO THE SAME POINT WHERE HE STARTED, SO HIS INITIAL STARTING POINT AND ENDING POINT'S ARE SAME . THEREFORE, DISPLACEMENT IS EQUAL TO ZERO.
