Answer:
Speed of the bug is 0.0832 m/s.
Explanation:
We have,
Radius of the circular planet is 18.3 cm or 0.183 m and time taken by the bug to complete one lap is 13.81 s.
It is required to find the speed of the bug in the circular path. It is given by the displacement in one lap divided by time taken. So,
[tex]v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{2\pi \times 0.183 }{13.81}\\\\v=0.0832\ m/s[/tex]
So, the speed of the bug is 0.0832 m/s.
