5.

Which of the following is correct?

a)

Initial Position = -5 m

Final Position = -5 m

Distance = 22 m

Displacement = 0 m

b)

Initial Position = -5 m

Final Position = -5 m

Distance = 0 m

Displacement = 22 m

c)

Initial Position = -5 m

Final Position = 6 m

Distance = 22 m

Displacement = 0 m

d)

Initial Position = -5 m

Final Position = 6 m

Distance = 0 m

Displacement = 22 m
