A particles is performing a uniform circular motion along circle of radius ' 
'. In half the period of revolution, its displacement and distance covered are respectively
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
In half the period, particle is diametrically opposite to its initial position. Hence, its displacement is 
.
It has covered a semicircle, hence distance covered by the particle is 
.
