Question

Calculate distance and displacement a boy started jogging from his home and moves 500m towards west then 400m towards south,then 600m towards east and finally 400m towards north

Answer 1

Answer:Distance= 141.37m

Displacement= 100 m toward east

Explanation:Hey.

Here is the answer.

a) distance = 4.5 rounds

= 4.5× circumference

= 4.5 × πd

= 4.5×3.14×10

= 141.37 m

Displacement = shortest distance between initial and final position

So, displacement after 4.5 rounds

= diameter

= 10 m

____________________

b) Distance travelled = 500+400+600+400

= 1900 m

Displacement = final position - initial position

= 100m east from start - 0 m from start

= 100 m towards East
