    Answer:

    The person has no displacement

    Explanation:

    The given parameters are

    The location of the person = The equator

    The distance covered in one revolution = Total distance around the body

    The total distance around the Earth = The circumference of the Earth = 40.075 kilometres

    The total distance moved by the person standing at the equator during the Earths complete revolution = 40,075 kilometres

    The initial location of the person in relation to a fixed point in space outside Earth at the start of the revolution = x km

    The final location of the person in relation to the fixed point in space outside Earth at the completion of the revolution = x km

    The displacement = Change in position = Final location – Initial location  

    ∴ The displacement = x km – x km = 0 km.
