Answer:

Total displacement = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

He lives his front porch and still returns to his front porch.

Now, displacement is a vector quantity and as such, it is the distance between the initial point of movement and the final point of movement.

In this case the initial point is the same as the final point and thus the displacement is zero.
