Question
Displacement of a closed body is
- Infinity
- 100
- zero
- 500
Hint:
The displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position.
The correct answer is: zero
-
The displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position. When final position of a body coincides with its initial position, displacement is zero, but the distance traveled is not zero.
- In a closed curve, starting point and final point is same so displacement is zero.
The displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position. When final position of a body coincides with its initial position, displacement is zero, but the distance traveled is not zero.
