An athlete running on a circular track of radius 5 m completes one round in 12 s. what its average speed and average displacement?
Answers
Given,
radius of track = 5m
time to complete one round =12s
We know that,
Average speed = total distance/ time taken
average speed = 5/12 m/sec
And,
Average displacement = 0
( because the athlete come back on the starting point)
Hope it's helpful...

GIVEN:
Radius = 5 m
complete 1 round in t= 12 sec
CONCEPT:
Average speed is a ratio of total distance wrt time
and distance can never be zero as it depends upon the actual path covered by the object
Average velocity is the ratio of total displacement añd total time taken
Average velocity can be zero as it depends upon the displacement
displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and the final position .
displacement can be zero only when initial and final position is the same
SOLUTION:
average speed
= total distance /total time
= 2πr/12
=31.4/12
=2.616
average velocity=0
as displacement=0(initial and final position is the same
I hope this helps ( ╹▽╹ )
