A particle is moving in a circle of diameter 5. calculate the distance covered and the displacement when it completes 3 revolutions.

Sagot :

Total distance covered is 47.1 m whereas displacement is zero.

Calculation:

Given,

Diameter, d = 5 m

No. of revolutions = 3

Radius, r = 5/2 = 2.5 m

To find,

Distance =?

Displacement =?

Distance covered in one revolution = 2πr

                                                           

Put the values in this,

Distance = 2 × 3.14 × 2.5

               = 15.7 m

Total distance covered in 3 revolution = 3 × 31.4

                                                                = 47.1 m

Displacement is the change in the position of the object or the distance between the initial and final position.

After 3 revolutions the particle comes back to its initial position. Therefore, the displacement is zero.

Hence, the total distance covered in 3 resolutions is 47.1 m whereas displacement is zero.
