questions
1. An object has moved through a
distance. Can it have zero
displacement? If yes, support
your answer with an example.
2. A farmer-.moves along the
boundary of a square field of side
10 mi in 40 s. What will be the
magnitude of displacement of the
farmer at the end of 2 minutes 20
seconds from his initial position?
3. Which of the following is true for
displacement?
(a) It cannot be zero.
(b) Its magnitude is greater than
the distance travelled by the
object.​

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Explanation:

because it's magnitude is greater than

the distance travelled by the

object.

Answer 2

$\huge\mathcal\color{teal}{Answer :- }$

Yes, an object moving a certain distance can have zero total displacement. Displacement refers to the shortest distance between the initial and the final positions of the object. Even if an object moves through a considerable distance, if it eventually comes back to its initial position, the corresponding displacement of the object would be zero.
