The car moves with the speed 60kmph for 1hour in east direction and with same speed for 30 min in South direction. The displacement of car from initial position is

Answer»

Answer:

10√45 km

Explanation:

Distance covered in East

x = Speed × Time

= 60 kmph × 1 HR

= 60 km

Distance covered in South

y = Speed × Time

= 60 kmph × 30 min

= 60 kmph × 0.5 hr

= 30 km

East and South are perpendicular directions. So, displacement (shortest distance between INITIAL and FINAL position) of CAR (from Pythagoras theorem) is

D = √(x² + y²)

= √(60² + 30²) km

= √(3600 + 900) km

= √4500 km

= 10√45 km
