4. A jogger runs along a circular track of radius R = 100.0 m. She starts at A and jogs three-fourths of the circular track, up to B. She then turns back and jogs one-half of the circular track, up to C. (Note that the dashed line is only a guide for the eye showing that B, the center of the circle, and C are collinear). A. What is the distance she traveled? B. Draw her displacement vector. C. What is the magnitude of her displacement? C R B A

What angle do thoy take, and how many moters do they go?
