1. An athlete completes one round of a circular track of diamete200 m in 40 s. What will be the distance covered and thedisplacement at the end of 2 minutes 20 s?

Answer»

Displacement is the shortest distance possible between initial and final position.As the athlete is in circular motion , displacement is zero. [ THis is because , the initial and final position is the same ]

Distance covered in 1 round = Circumference of the circle

Circumference of the circle = 2πr

Diameter = 200 mRadius = 100 m

Distance covered in 1 round[ 40 sec ] = 2 × 22/7 × 100 = 628.57 m

Distance covered in 1 sec = 628.57 ÷ 40 = 15.71 m

2min 20 sec = 140 secDistance covered in 140 sec = 15.71 × 140 = 2199.4 m
