Correct answer: C

  1. Given data

    • Radius of circular path: r=10 mr = 10\,\text{m}r=10m
    • Time period: T=4 sT = 4\,\text{s}T=4s
    • We need displacement after t=3 st = 3\,\text{s}t=3s from the starting point.
  2. Find angular displacement in 3 s In one complete revolution, the angle covered is 2π2\pi2π in 4 4\,4s.

    So angular speed is ω=2πT=2π4=π2 rad/s\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T} = \frac{2\pi}{4} = \frac{\pi}{2}\,\text{rad/s}ω=T2π​=42π​=2π​rad/s

    Therefore, in 3 3\,3s, angular displacement is θ=ωt=π2×3=3π2\theta = \omega t = \frac{\pi}{2}\times 3 = \frac{3\pi}{2}θ=ωt=2π​×3=23π​

    So the body has moved through 270∘270^\circ270∘ from the starting point.

  3. Displacement in circular motion Displacement is the straight-line distance between initial and final positions, i.e. the chord length.

    Chord length formula: d=2rsin⁡θ2d = 2r\sin\frac{\theta}{2}d=2rsin2θ​

    Substituting r=10r=10r=10 and θ=3π2\theta=\frac{3\pi}{2}θ=23π​: d=2(10)sin⁡(3π4)d = 2(10)\sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{4}\right)d=2(10)sin(43π​) d=20⋅22d = 20\cdot \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}d=20⋅22​​ d=102 md = 10\sqrt{2}\,\text{m}d=102​m

  4. Check options

    • A: 15π15\pi15π ❌
    • B: 303030 ❌
    • C: 10210\sqrt{2}102​ ✅
    • D: 5π5\pi5π ❌

So the correct answer is Option C.
