You leave your house at 5:02 PM and run 20 yards down the street. You don't realize that you forgot your Wallet back at home and turn around. You have run a third of the way back when you look at your watch and see that it change to say 5:03 PM. What is your average velocity in m/s up to this point

Answer:

The average velocity is 0.203 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

initial displacement, x₁ = 20 yards = 18.288 m

final displacement, x₂ = ¹/₃ x 18.288 = 6.096 m

change in time between 5:02 PM and 5:03 PM, Δt = 3 mins - 2 mins = 1 min = 60 s

The average velocity is given by;

V = change in displacement / change in time

V = (x₂ - x₁) / Δt

V = (18.288 - 6.096) / 60

V = 0.203 m/s

Therefore, the average velocity is 0.203 m/s
