For a convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ the mean distance $\Delta(K)=\mathbb{E}|X_1-X_2|$ is the expected Euclidean distance of two independent and uniformly distributed random points $X_1, X_2\in K$.

Implications on the weak convergence of the convex hull of the intersection point process and the convergence of its $f$-vector are also discussed, disproving and correcting thereby a conjecture of Devroye and Toussaint [J.\ Algorithms 14. 3 (1993), 381--394] in computational geometry.
