Question

Is it possible to have a moving body with zero
displacement, but covering a large distance?
Yes, it is possible. For example, if a body
completes one revolution along a circular path of
radius r, distance covered by the body will be 2tr,
whereas its displacement will be zero. Similarly,
earth has a zero displacement about its own axis after
24 hours, whereas it covers a very large distance.





Can someone please explain this ​

Answer 1

Answer:

if u run a round a whole field and came back to where u started,

ur distance is the total steps u travelled in all directions

ur displacement ( shortest distance between starting and finishing point ) is 0 as ur standing on the same spot at the end of the trip
