Question

Calcular la rapidez promedio

Answer 1

Answer:

  v_average = 15 m / s

Explanation:

The average speed can be found in two ways,

* taking the distance traveled and divide it by the time spent

* taking the velocities in each time interval and then finding the weighted average by the time fraction

              v_average = 1 / t_total ∑  $v_{i} t_{i}$vi ti

Let's apply this last equation

               

Total time is

               t = t₁ + t₂

               t = 10 + 10 = 20   min

              v_average = 10/20 10 + 10/20 20

              v_average = 10/2 + 20/2

              v_average = 15 m / s
