Given :-
If on a round trip you travel 6 km and then alive back home.
To Find :-
Distance covered
Final displacement
Solution :-
Case 1 :-
We traveled 6 km when going to trip and 6 km when coming back home.
So,
Distance = 6 km + 6 km
Distance = 12 km
Case 2 :-
We know that,
Displacement is the shortest path from initial position to final position.
So, when we came back home displacement became zero(0).
Displacement = 0

⬇️(a) Distance travelled = 6 km
⬇️(b) Displacement = zero(since final position is same as initial position)
