An absent-minded Penn State professor drives from State College to Tyrone, 20 miles away, at 60 mph (miles per hour), before rea
lizing that he forgot his wallet. He immediately returns to State College at 60 mph, picks up his wallet and drives back to Tyrone at 60 mph. Assuming all the travel was done more or less on a straight line and neglecting the time taken to turn around or collect the professor's wallet, what is the magnitude of the professor's average velocity for the entire trip?
it's not their job to sort out the cost of cleaning it up or worry about the public opinion. they should only make sure it doesn't happen again so they should find out why it happened
This is tough. The last number 0.2 has only one significant figure. So while the sum of all the numbers is 12.3, you must only leave one sig figure. Rounding to the tenths gives 10.
