A boy walks uniformally along the sides of a rectangular park of size 400 m × 300 m, starting from one corner to the other corner diagonally opposite. Which of the following statement is incorrect
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Displacement \overrightarrow{AC} = \overrightarrow{AB} + \overrightarrow{BC}
\(\mathbf{AC} = \sqrt{(\mathbf{AB})^2 + (\mathbf{BC})^2} = \sqrt{(400)^2 + (300)^2} = 500m\)
Distance = AB + BC = 400 + 300 = 700 m
