Question

a body covered a distance of x metre along a semicircular path. calculate the magnitude of displacement of the body and the ratio of distance to displacement

Answer 1

Hii,
The body covers a distance equal to semicircular path.
So,distance covered=πr r=x/π
displacement=2r
=2x/π
Ratio=πr/2r
=π/2
π:2

Answer 2

Answer:

please mark me as brainliest.

Explanation:

Total distance covered is half the circumference of circular path.

So, distance d = (2πr)/2 = πr

We have been given that

d = x

So, πr = x

So, r = x/π

Now, the displacement is the shortest path between initial point and final point.

Here, displacement s = diameter = 2r

Therefore, s=2x/π

Also, ratio is d/s = (πr)/2r = π/2

Thus,

Magnitude of displacement is 2x/π

And, ratio of distance to displacement is π/2
