When a woman walks south at a speed of 2.0mph for 60 minutes. She then turns around and walks north at a distance of 3000m in 25 minutes. then the woman's average speed during her entire motion would be 73.15 meters /minute.
<h3>What is speed?</h3>
The total distance covered by any object per unit of time is known as speed.
the mathematical expression for speed is given by
speed = total; distance /total time
As given in the problem a woman walks south at a speed of 2.0mph for 60 minutes
60 min = 1 hour
1 mile = 1.60934 km
The distance covered by her southwards = speed ×time
=2 mph × 60 minutes
= 3.218 km
She then turns around and walks north at a distance of 3000m in 25 minutes
The distance covered northward is 3000m
speed = total distance /total time
=(3218 +3000) /(60+25)
=73.15 meters /minutes
Thus, The average speed of the woman would be 73.15 meters /minute.
