Question

plz answer this question ​

Answer 1

Answer:

When the boy travels to school, he cover a distance of 1km.

Again, when he returns, he covers a distance of 1km.

So total distance travelled is 1+1=2km

However, displacement is the smallest distance covered from initial to final point.

So, since the boy goes from and returns to his home, his net displacement is 0.

Hope u get it.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Distance is the total path covered from the initial point to the final point .

so, he travels 1 km from home to school

and then returned back to his home and covered 1 km .

so the total distance = 1 km +1 km

= 2 km

Displacement is the shortest path between the initial point and the final point.

the boy goes from his house to school and then returned back to house.

the initial point and the final point are same i.e. house

so the displacement is zero
