Question

An athelete complete the diameter of 209 m in 40 s.What will be the distance covered and the:displacement at the end od 2m in 20s?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Displacement is the shortest distance possible between initial and final position.

As the athlete is in circular motion , displacement is zero. [ THis is because , the initial and final position is the same ]

Distance covered in 1 round = Circumference of the circle

Circumference of the circle = 2πr

Diameter = 200 m

Radius = 100 m

Distance covered in 1 round[ 40 sec ] = 2 × 22/7 × 100 = 628.57 m

Distance covered in 1 sec = 628.57 ÷ 40 = 15.71 m

2min 20 sec = 140 sec

Distance covered in 140 sec = 15.71 × 140 = 2199.4 m
