The rule of the length of the arc is


L=(x)/(360)*2*\pi* r

Where x is the central angle of the arc

The angle of the arc is 150 degrees

x = 150

The radius of the arc is 2.4 km

r = 2.4

Substitute them in the rule


\begin{gathered} L=(150)/(360)*2*\pi*2.4 \\ L=2\pi \end{gathered}

The length of the arc is 2pi
