Kinematics Question 94
Question: Assertion : Displacement of a body may be zero when distance travelled by is not zero. Reason : The displacement is the longest distance between initial and final position.
Options:
A) If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
B) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
C) If assertion is true but reason is false.
