Answer to Problem 10.5MPS
Distance the ball would cover to travel from one corner to the opposite corner of the playing surface is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Concept Used:
By pythagoros theorem,
Calculation:
As the distance of the ball travelling from one corner to opposite of the playing surface forms a diagonal on the rectangular playing board.
Thus Considering it as a right angled
Aplying pythagorous theorem,
Substituting the values in above formula,
Taking square root of both the sides,
Conclusion:
Hence ,distance that the ball would cover to travel from one corner to the opposite corner of the playing surface is
