Question

Statement 1: The displacement of a body may be zero, though distance can be finite.
Statement 2: If a body moves such that finally it arrives at initial point, then displacement
is zero while distance is finite.
(A) Both statements 1 and 2 are true and statement 2 is the correct explanation of statement 1.
(B) Both statements 1 and 2 are true but statement is not the correct explanation of statement 1.
(C) Statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false
(D) Statement 1 is false and statement 2 is true​

Answer 1

Explanation:

correct option is A

because if the body travels to some point and returns back to initial position

it's displacement becomes zero while the value of distance remains positive

for example

if a object travels in straight line to some and returns back to the intial point in same straight then it's displacement becomes zero while distance becomes 2d
