A person walks along a sides of a square field.Each side is 10m long.What is the maximum magnitude of displacement of the person in any time interval?
Answers
Answer:
30m.
Explanation:
displacement will be 0 if the person returns back to his original position thus for maximum displacemnt the person must go only 3 sides. In that case the magnitude of displacement would be 30m.
Answer:
The maximum displacement of the person in any time interval is 10√2 m.
Explanation:
Assumption,
Let the side of the square field be 's'.
Let the maximum magnitude of displacement of the person in any time interval be 'S'
Given,
The length of each side of the square field 's' is 10 m
To find,
The maximum magnitude of displacement of the person in any time interval (S).
Concept,
The displacement of a body is defined as the straight path distance traveled by the body
Calculation,
As we are required to find the maximum displacement and it is along the diagonal of the square.
And the length of the diagonal of a square is given by √2 × s
Therefore, the maximum displacement of the person in any time interval is 10√2 m.
