2. A farmer moves along the boundary of a squarefield of side 10 m in 40 s. What will be themagnitude of displacement of the farmer atthe end of 2 minute 20 seconds from his initialposition?​

Answer»

GIVEN side of SQUARE =10m, thus perimeter P=40m

Time taken to cover the boundary of 40 m =40 s

Thus in 1 second, the farmer COVERS a distance of 1 m

Now distance COVERED by the farmer in 2 min 20 seconds = 1×140=140m

Now the total number of rotation the farmer makes to cover a distance of 140 meters =  total distance/perimetre=3.5

At this point, the farmer is at a point say B from the origin O

Thus the displacement s=√ 10  ∧2 +10 ∧2 ...... from pythagoras therom

s=10 √ 2 =14.14m
