A particle is in uniform circular motion about a horizontal circle of radius  R = 5 meters with a center at (0,0). The particle's initial position at t = 0 is point A, (5,0). The particle moves along the circle to point B through an angle of 1 radian. What distance was traveled along the circular arc AB?
