Question

If the displacement is zero does it mean the particle did not move at all?

Answer 1

Answer:

If the displacement is 0, it doesn't necessarily mean that the body hasn't moved. For example, and object may have moved from point A to B and then back to A. In this case, there is distance, but displacement is 0

Answer 2

It is not necessary that particle did not move when displacement is zero

Explanation:

• Displacement of any body is defined as the shortest path covered by the body, it is a vector quantity so depends on direction as well
• Displacement depends on the final and initial position of the particle and does not depend on the path followed by it
• This may be the case that particle do not move and have zero displacement but it is not necessary for example :- When a body moves from a point A to point B and return back to the point A then final and initial point coincides hence there will be path covered between the points. Another example is if body moves along the circumference of the circle if it starts from some point and moving around the circle it will reach at the same point hence again the displacement covered is zero
