Question

how do you show the total distance and displacement covered by an body in a circle.

Answer 1

Answer:

Distance covered by the body will be the circumference of the circular track (as distance is measured by the path covered by a body from initial point to final point). Displacement will be zero by the body on the circular track (as displacement is the distance between initial point and final point which is zero).

Answer 2

Answer:

TOTAL DISTANCE COVERD BY TRAVELLING IN A CIRCLE IS EQUAL TO ITS PERIMETER

AND WE ALL KNOW THAT PERIMETRE OF CIRCLE IS

$2\pi R$

HENCE DISTANCE COVERD IN A CIRCLE IS

$2\pi R$

NOW FOR THE DISPLACE MENT AS YOU TRAVELL THE CIRCLE YOU ARIVE

AT THE SAME POINT AFTER EVERY ROTATION HENCE THE DISPLACEMENT IS 0
