The three initial and final position of ...

The three initial and final position of a man on the X-axis are given as
(i) `(-8m, 7m)` (ii) `(7m, -3m)`
(iii) `(-7m, 3m)`
Which pair gives the negative displacement ?

A

i

B

ii

C

iii

D

I and iii

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Displacement = final position - initial position
`S = -3 -(-7) = -10 m`
