A man starts from O moves 500 m turns by 60 o and moves 500 m again turns by 60 o and moves 500 m and so on. Find the displacement after (i) 5 th turn, (ii) 3 rd turn
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
A regular hexagon will be formed it we continue.
After 5 th turn displacement = OE = 500 m
After 3 rd turn displacement = OC = 1000 m (OC is diameter
of the circle circumscribing regular hexagon).
