  13. Okay so if one person is farther from the person that they were at and have no where to go and the other person has a rocket ship and if the rocket ship is moving farther and farther the person would go a long distance away from the person it is possible and think of you and your friend your in school, and you have to go to class and your friend is staying in the hall you start to walk away making a distance away from your friend from the starting point you started to walk away from

  34. One person will take a shorter route like say go straight across the room. Then the other person could take a longer route like around the room.

  35. This is possible because one of them obviously took a longer route, resulting in a longer distance, but since they both ended up at the same place, their displacement was the same.
