1. Starting from a pillar, you run 200 m east (the +x-direction) at an average speed of 5.0 m/s, and then run 280 m west at an average speed of 4.0 m/s to a post. Calculate (a) your average speed from pillar to post and (b) your average velocity from pillar to post.
You and your family are going on a road trip to visit your recently married cousin in B.C. The total round trip distance is 2100 km. On the way to B.C., you encounter no setbacks and you are able to drive on average at a constant speed. On the way home from B.C., you encounter a snowstorm and your mom has to slow down to avoid getting into an accident. Thus, your average speed decreases by 10 km/h. If the total driving time was 42 hours, what was your average speed on the way to B.C.? Recall distance = speed x time.
please help with questions 7 and 8 using the data
