When the object goes back to its starting position the distance would be
A
the same
B
double
C
triple
D
zero
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -If an object comes back to its initial position, its displacement will be zero.

Detailed explanation-2: -Displacement is the length and direction that an object has moved from its starting point.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: Solving for the displacement. We know that the initial and your final position is just the same since after you reached the store you head back to your home. Therefore the displacement is 0.

Detailed explanation-4: -So, if an object starts from point A and after travelling some distance it comes back to the same point A, then there is no change in position, so displacement is zero. Thus, displacement is zero, if initial and final positions are the same even though it travelled some distance.
