Assertion: The displacement of a moving body may be zero, though its distance can be finite.
Reason: If the body moves such that it finally arrives at the initial point, then the displacement is zero while the distance is finite.
1. Both Assertion & Reason are true and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
2. Both Assertion & Reason are true but the Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
3. Assertion is a true statement but Reason is false.
4. Both Assertion and Reason are false statements.
Assertion: The average velocity of the body may be equal to its instantaneous velocity.
