Answer:
The average speed can be calculated as the quotient between the distance travelled and the time needed to travel that distance.
To go to the school, he travels 2.4 km in 0.6 hours, then here the average speed is:
s = (2.4km)/(0.6 hours) = 4 km/h
To return to his home, he travels 2.4km again, this time in only 0.4 hours, then here the average speed is:
s' = (2.4 km)/(0.4 hours) = 6 km/h.
Now, if we want the total average speed (of going and returning) we have that the total distance traveled is two times the distance between his home and school, and the total time is 0.6 hours plus 0.4 hours, then the average speed is:
S = (2*2.4 km)/(0.6 hours + 0.4 hours)
S = (4.8km)/(1 h) = 4.8 km/h
The answer is false, your welcome.
Answer:
Answer is D.......Falling water turns a turbine that helps generate electricity.
Explanation:
Hydropower plants capture the energy of falling water to generate electricity. A turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical energy. Then a generator converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electrical energy.
Average speed= total distance/total time =12km/h
