Answer:
distance and length are the same quantity
The average speed of the whole travel is equal to <u>400 mph</u>.
Why?
From the statement, we know that whole travel is divided into three parts. For the first part (traveling from New York to Chicago), we have that it was 3.25 hours and the covered distance was half of the total distance (1400mi). For the second part, we have that it was 1 hour (layover time), and the covered no distance. For the third part (traveling from Chicago to Los Angeles), we have that it was 2.75 hours, and it took the other half of the total distance (1400mi).
We can calculate the average speed of the whol travel using the following formula:

Now, substituting and calculating, we have:


Hence, we have the average speed of the whole travel is equal to 400 mph.

Answer:
Because the molecules are not packed together as much than the air, in a fixed volume of helium there are fewer particles than in the same fixed volume of air.
This means that the mass of the fixed volume of helium is smaller than the one of air, and then the density, defined as mass/volume, is also smaller.
This is why the balloon floats, because the air is denser, it tries to go down, pushing the ballon upside.
The case is similar for a piece of metal in water, as the metal is way denser than the water, the metal will sink, but for something not as dense, like a balloon with air, the balloon will remain in the surface of the water.
