A space shuttle takes off from FL and circles Earth several times, finally landing in CA. While the shuttle is in flight, a phot
ographer flies from FL to CA to take pictures of astronauts when they step off the shuttle. Who undergoes the greater displacement, the astronauts or the photographer?
Both the astronauts and photographer have the same displacement
Explanation:
Displacement is the minimum distance between two point. The initial point of both the astronauts and the photographer was Florida and the final point was California. So, the minimum distance for both of the astronauts and the photographer would be the distance between Florida and California would be the same.
Hence, both the astronauts and photographer will have the same displacement.
