Question

The statement of child is as follows my displacement is zero thought I ran 250 m what is meant by this​

Answer 1

Answer:

This meant that the child had started running from his home (A) and covered 125 m (B) after that he came to his home (A) along the same path.

Hence the distance covered by the child is 125m +125m = 250 m

And the displacement = final position - Initial position = B - A

i.e. 125m-125m = 0m
