an athlete runs around a circular track of 350m.if e runs 2 and half rounds what is distance and displacemnt?
Answers
Answer:
hope the answer helps you
Answer:
Half round: distance= 628 metres, displacement = 400 metres
One round: distance = 1256 metres, displacement = 0 metres
Explanation:
Given:
Radius of the circular track = 200 metres
To find:
Distance and displacement in:
Half round
One complete round
Distance:
The circumference of the circle will be the distance covered in one round whereas half of the circumference will be distance covered in half roun
Half round:
Circumference of circle =
Circumference of semicircle =
Distance = 3.14×200
Distance = 628 metres
the distance covered in half round is equal to 628 metres
One round:
Distance =
Distance = 2×3.14×200
Distance = 1256 metres
The distance covered in one round is equal to 1256 metres
Displacement:
Half round:
The displacement at the half round will be equal to the diameter of the circle
Diameter = 2×Radius
Diameter = 2×200
Diameter = 400 metres
The displacement at end of half round will be equal to 400 metres
One round:
The displacement will be equal to 0 as the athlete will come to initial position
