प्रश्न
An athlete completes one round of a circular track of diameter 200 m in 40 s. What will be the distance covered and the displacement at the end of 2 minutes 20 s?

उत्तर

Diameter, d = 200 m, r = `d/2` 100 m
Time for one round = 40 s
Distance travelled in 2 minutes and 20 s
(2 × 60 + 20 = 140 s)
= `140/40`
= 3.5 rounds
Distance travelled = Circumference of the circle × 3.5
= 2πr × 3.5
= `2 xx 22/7 xx 100 xx 3.5`
= 2200 m
Displacement after 3.5 rounds
= diameter of the track
= 200 m

What can you say about the nature of motion of a body if its displacement-time graph is A straight line inclined to the time axis with an acute angle?
A car covers 90 km in `1 1/2` hours towards east. Calculate
- displacement of car,
- its velocity in (a) kmh−1 (b) ms−1.
A motor car slows down from 72 kmh−1 to 36 kmh−1 over a distance of 25 m. If the brakes are applied with the same force
calculate
- total time in which car comes to rest
- distance travelled by it.
Can distance covered by a body be less than the magnitude of its displacement?
The figure represents graphically the velocity of a car moving along a straight road over a period of 100 hours.
