Which of the following is true for displacement ?

$(a)$ It cannot be zero.

$(b)$ Its magnitude is greater than the distance travelled by the object.

Option A

Option B

Option C

Option D

Solution

None of the statement is true for displacement First statement is false because displacement can be zero. Second statement is also false because displacement is less than or equal to the distance travelled by the object.

A train is travelling at a speed of $90\, km \,h^{-1}$. Brakes are applied so as to produce a uniform acceleration of $- 0.5\, m s^{-2}$. Find how far(in $m$) the train will go before it is brought to rest.
