HeyaA farmer moves along the boundary of a square field of side 10 m in 40s.what will be the magnitude of displacement of the farmer at the end of 2 minute and 20 seconds ? |

Answer» Here, Side of the given square field = 10m so, perimeter of a square = 4*side = 10 m * 4 = 40 m Farmer takes 40 s to move ALONG the boundary. Displacement after 2 minutes 20 s = 2 * 60 s + 20 s = 140 seconds since in 40 s farmer moves 40 m Therefore, in 1S the distance COVERED by farmer = 40 / 40 m = 1m Therefore, in 140s distance covered by farmer = 1 � 140 m = 140 m. Now, number of rotation to cover 140 along the boundary= Total Distance / Perimeter = 140 m / 40 m = 3.5 ROUND Thus, after 3.5 round farmer will at point C of the field. Thus, after 2 min 20 seconds the displacement of farmer will be equal to 14.14 m north east from initial position.
