The hiker's average velocity during part B of the hike is equal to: D. 6 km/h South.
Given the following data:
- Total distance = 6 km, South.
To determine hiker's average velocity during part B of the hike:
First of all, we would determine the total time.
[tex]Total\;time = Ending\;time - Start\;time\\\\Total\;time = 10:45-9:45[/tex]
Total time = 1 hour.
Mathematically, the average velocity is given by the formula:
[tex]Average\;velocity = \frac{Total\;distance}{Total\;time}[/tex]
Substituting the parameters into the formula, we have;
[tex]Average\;velocity = \frac{6}{1}[/tex]
Average velocity = 6 km/h South.
