the athletes must run one 400-m lap around an oval track to complete the race what is the displacement of the athletes after they complete the race

The displacement of the athletes after they complete the race is zero. This is because displacement refers to the change in position of an object, measured in a straight line from the starting point to the ending point. In this case, since the race starts and ends at the same point on the oval track, the net change in position is zero, resulting in zero displacement.
