Sagot :

Answer:

The man's total displacement is equal to 0.

Explanation:

Given that,

A man ran a 5 mile race. The race looped around a city park and back  to the starting line.

We need to find the total displacement of the man.

We know that,

Displacement = shortest path covered

Also,

Displacement = final position - initial position

As it reaches back to its starting line, it means, the displacement is equal to 0.

Hence, the man's total displacement is equal to 0.
