Question
Solve the following problems and show you complete solutions. Write it on the paper and do not type it.
A car travel along a straight line at a constant speed of
60 mi/hr for a distance (d) and then another distance
(d) in the same direction at another constant speed.
The average velocity for the entire trip is 30 mi/hr.
a.) What is the average speed with which the car
moved during the second distance (d)?
b.) What if the second distance (d) were traveled in
the opposite direction and had to return home with
the same speed as found in (a), what is the average
velocity for the entire trip?
c.) What is the average velocity for the new trip?
