Answer:
a) False, Displacement can be zero.
b) False, the value of displacement cannot be greater than distance.
Explanation:
Displacement is the shortest path travelled.
Displacement is a vector quantity thus it can be positive, negative or zero.
a) Hence, displacement can be zero.
b) Since the displacement is the shortest distance covered so it is always less than or equal to distance. Displacement cannot exceed distance.
Displacement ≤ Distance
So, displacement can never be greater than the distance covered by the object.
