A train moving at a constant speed of 70.0 km/h moves east for 45.0 min, then in a direction 55.0° east of due north for 25.0 mi
n, and then west for 55.0 min. what is the average velocity of the train during this run? (let the +x-axis point towards the east and the +y-axis point towards the north.)
We know the starting point and the ending point. Find the vector that connects the starting point to the ending point, and then divide this by the total time elapsed (45.0 + 25.0 + 55) min.
The result will be your average velocity (a vector quantity).
