Question

the displacement of an moving object in given interval of time zero would the distance traveled by the object also be on zero? give reason for your answer?

Answer 1

Answer:

Would the distance travelled by the object also be zero? Justify your answer? Answer: The displacement of a moving object in a given interval is zero i.e., the object comes back to its initial position in the given time (displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final position of an object).

Answer 2

Answer:

no

Explanation:

Suppose I go from A to B then back to A

consider the length between A and B be 5 m

I would have traveled totally 10 m but since displacement is the shortest distance from the starting and end points. My start point is A and my end point is A. So the shortest distance between A and A is 0. So the displacement is 0 metres
