Olivia places her pet frog on a line to observe the frog’s motion. the line is divided into sections that measure 1 centimeter each. the frog begins at 0, moves 18 centimeters forward, moves 6 centimeters backward, and then 12 centimeters backward.
what is the frog’s displacement?

Displacement = 0

Explanation:

Displacement can be defined as the straight line path distance between starting and final position.

The fog starts at 0 add moves 18 cm. Then moves 6 cm backwards and then another 12 cm backwards.

It is a vector quantity. We will take forward direction as positive and backward as negative

Displacement = 0 + 18 cm -6 cm - 12 cm = 0

Hence, the frog's displacement is 0 which means that frog came back to its initial position.
