Calculate the length of the arc of a circle of radius 31.0 cm which subtends an angle of `pi/6` at the centre.

उत्तर
Plane Angle α = `"Arc length"/"Radius" = s/r`
According to the problem, θ = `pi/6 = s/31` cm
Hence, length of arc = s = `31 xx pi/6` cm`
= `(31 xx 3.14)/6` cm
= 16.22 cm
Rounding off to three significant figures it would be 16.2 cm.

A man walking briskly in rain with speed v must slant his umbrella forward making an angle θ with the vertical. A student derives the following relation between θ and v: tan θ = v and checks that the relation has a correct limit: as v →0, θ → 0, as expected. (We are assuming there is no strong wind and that the rain falls vertically for a stationary man). Do you think this relation can be correct? If not, guess the correct relation.
