MCQ
A circular park has a path of uniform width around it. The difference betweenthe outer and inner circumferences of the circular path is $132\ m$. Its width is :
  • A
    $20m$
  • $21m$
  • C
    $22m$
  • D
    $24m$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$21m$
Let $R$ and $r$ the radil of the outer and inner circles of the park, then
$2\pi\text{R}-2\pi\text{r}=132$
$\Rightarrow2\pi(\text{R $-$ r})=132$
$\Rightarrow\frac{2\times22}{7}(\text{R $-$ r})=132$
$\Rightarrow\text{R $-$ r}=\frac{132\times7}{2\times22}=21$
$\therefore$ Width of parth $= 21m\ \  (b)$
