If the displacement of a body is zero is the distance covered by it necessarily zero ? Explain with suitable illustration.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2

`u=sqrt(5)` and `tan theta=2`
so by `y=x tan theta-(gx^(2))/(2u^(2))(1+tan^(2) theta)`
`rArr y=2x-(10x^(2))/(2xx5) (1+4)rArr y=2x-5x^(2)`
