a body moves in a circle of radius 2r what is the distance covered and displacement of the body after 2 complete rounds?

Here,Radius of circle=2r

So circumference=

Now,

Since the body completes 2 rounds,so total distance travelled

Again,in this motion the initial position and final position are same.

So displacement=final position-initial position=0

  • 2

Displacement : 0

Distance: 4 pie r 

  • -4

total distance travelled will be equal to the total circumference of the circle traversed.

so,

circumference of the circle = C = 2πR = 2π(2r) = 4πr

so, after two complete rounds, the total distance travelled will be = 2 x 4πr = 8πr

 

as the initial and final position of the particle are same, the net displacement will be zero.
