A car travels a certain distance from A to B with a speed of 60km/hr and then returns along the same path to the starting point with a speed of 40km/hr. Find the average speed and average velocity.
a) Km/hr
b) m/s

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed is total distance traveled over time taken to do so.

If AB is measured in kilometers, time (t) for the whole trip is

t = AB/60 + AB/40  

t = 2AB/120 + 3AB/120

t = 5AB/120 hrs

Average speed is distance over time

s = 2AB / (5AB/120)

s = 2(120)/5

s = 48 km/hr

s = 48(1000 m/km / 3600 s/hr) = 13.333333.... 13 m/s

Velocity is displacement over time.

As displacement is zero, velocity is zero

v = 0 km/hr = 0 m/s

Pretty harsh reporting answers just because they are wrong.
