AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of calculating the displacement of a body thrown vertically upward that returns to its initial position, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Concept of Displacement**: - Displacement is defined as the shortest distance between the initial and final positions of an object. It is a vector quantity that considers direction. 2. **Identify Initial and Final Positions**: ...
