An object is moving in a circular path of radius 3.5 m. If it completes one full cycle, what will be the displacement and what is the distance traveled?

Solution

In one complete cycle, it comes back to its initial position, so the displacement of the object is zero.
Distance travelled = circumference of the circle = 2 $π$ r
=2 $\times$ $\frac{22}{7}$ $\times$ 3.5
=22m
