Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1). Distance traveled during the first minute (A-B)

= Distance from A to C + Distance from C to D + Distance from D to B

= 40 + 100 + 40

= 180 m

Option (4) will be the answer.

2). Displacement after first minute (A-B)

= Distance from A to B

= 180 m East

Option (2) is the answer.

3). Distance traveled during the first 2 minutes (A - B - C)

= Distance from A to B + Distance from B to C

= 180 + 140

= 320 m

Option (3) will be the answer.

4). Displacement after first 2 minutes (A-B-C)

= Distance between A and C

= 40 m towards east

Option (1) is the answer.

5). Distance traveled during 3 minutes (A-B-C-D)

= Distance between A to B + Distance between B to C + Distance between C to D

= 180 + 140 + 100

= 420 m

Option (4) is the answer.

6). Displacement after total 3 minutes (A-B-C-D)

= Distance between A and D

= Distance between A to C + distance between C to D

= 40 + 100

= 140 m

And the direction is towards East.

Option (3) is the answer.
