Question

Shiva is moving on a circular orbit of radius 30m.He completed 3

rounds. Calculate the distance and displacement covered by him?​

Answer 1

Distance

Distance traveled by a body is the path length.

D = πr

here r = 30m

so, distance of 1 round ( D ) = 30 π = 94.25

shiva complete 3 rounds

so, total distance covered by him is (3 × 94.25) = 282.75 m

Displacement Formula

Displacement = ( final position – initial position )

in circular path final position = initial position

so, Displacement covered by him will zero (0).
