In order to feed the chicks, the mother hen gathers her food from a small pit, 10 m away from the nest. Each time, the mother hen goes from the nest to the pit in 4 min, picks her food in 1 min and returns back in 5 min, delivers the food immediately and Q. goes back towards the pit. The mother hen repeats this process numerously. Starting from the nest, what would be the distance covered and the displacement of the hen in the first 25 min? 50 m, 0 m 50 m, 10 m 25 m, 10 m 25 m, 0m
