A boy completes one round of a circular track of diameter 200 m in 30 s. What will be the displacement at the end of 3 minutes and 45 seconds ?

Answer c.

Explanation Answer · c

The remaining half-lap places the boy one diameter, 200 m, from the start. The time is 225 s, or 225/30=7.5 revolutions at uniform speed. After seven complete rounds and a half-round, the boy is diametrically opposite his start, so displacement magnitude equals the 200 m diameter.
