Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D Zero
Displacement is defined as the shortest distance between the initial position and the final position.
Suppose the body starts from point A, travels 40 m towards point B and finally return back to point A.
The initial position and the final position are same.
Therefore, the displacement will be zero here.
