An athlete runs around a track that is 100mts long for 3 times and then stops. What is the distance and displacement covered by the athlete? Pls tell me fast with explanation.

Answer»

Answer:

distance-300. Mts.

displacement-0

Explanation:

distance= total covered path

so when the athlete RUN around a track 3 times then it means that total distance will be 3*distance in ONE round

=3*100

=300 mts.

Now, displacement is the shortest path

We know that when a body starts from a point which is its initial point and then returns BACK to it i.e. to its final point then it's displacement is said to be 0

therefore, displacement done is this case is also 0 as the athlete comes back to his initial POSITION after 3 ROUNDS..
