Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Diameter = 200 m

Radius, r = 200/2 = 100 m

Time taken, t = 30 seconds

Formula to be used:

Distance traveled, = circumference of circle = 2πr

Answer:

Putting all the values, we get

Distance traveled = 2πr

  • Distance traveled = 2 × 22/7 × 100
  • Distance traveled = 4400/7
  • Distance traveled = 628.57 m

So, the distance traveled by Raju is 628.57 m.

Now, magnitude of the displacement,

At the end of 30 seconds, Raju will come to starting position or initial position, so displacement is zero.
