Answer:TRUE
Explanation: Displacement is a change in position of an object or a person starting from where he or she started or where the object was sent from to the final point. If an object or a person returns to the same point as at the point he or she started the person's displacement is ZERO.
Distance is the term used to describe the length covered, it measures from the starting point to the finish line it is a NON ZERO VALUE. Both DISPLACEMENT AND DISTANCE COVERED ARE SCALAR QUANTITIES.
Displacement is a vector quantity, which is the shortest distance traveled by an object from the initial to the final position.
The given statement is true.
Displacement is defined as the difference in the final and initial position of an object. A person traveling on a round trip, such that the initial and final position of the person is the same, the net displacement is zero.
Distance is the scalar quantity.
Displacement can be zero, whereas distance is a non-zero value. Distance is the measurement of length covered from start to finish point.
Therefore, the statement is true.
