a body is moving along a circular path of radius . what will be the diastance and displacement of the body when it complete 2 and the half revolution
Answers
Answer:
HEYA,
Here is your answer
Explanation:
Let a body is moving along a circular path of radius, R. Suppose the body starts it's journey from point ,A.
After completing 2 and half revolution of circle, the body will be at the point , diametrically opposite to point A. .
So, the initial point of body is :-- Point A.
Final point of body - Diametrically opposite point of A, let it be point B.
Then , to find distance travelled by the body to complete it's journey= 2 × ( circumference of circle ) + πR.
= 2 ( 2πR ) + πR
= 4π R + π R
= 5πR
Hence, body will travel distance = 5πR m
To find displacement of body, we will find the shortest distance from initial to final position of object.
Since, final point ( B ) is located at diametrically opposite to the initial point ( A ).
So, shortest distance between A and B would be the length of diameter of the circle.
Displacement = diameter of circle = 2R.
Hence, displacement of body is 2R.
