Question

On a square track of edge length 100m an athlete starts from one corner and reaches diagonally opposite corner. Find the distance and the magnitude of displacement of the athlete. (200m,10050m)

​

Answer 1

The distance will be equal to length of two sides which he covered i.e. = 100 m + 100m

=> 200 m

Displacement = LENGTH OF DIAGONAL

=√(100 square + 100 square)

= √ (10000+10000)

=√20000

=> √20000 m

=

$8\sqrt[?]{?} 500$
