Refer to the diagram showing a man moving from 0 m to -8 m to 6 m.

Why is it impossible for the man's speed to equal zero in this scenario?

• Because speed is always negative

• Because speed is calculated using DISPLACEMENT not DISTANCE. And his displacement can't be 0 m if he has moved.

• Because speed is never 0

• Because speed is calculated using DISTANCE not DISPLACEMENT. And his distance can't be 0 m if he has moved.
