A students walks one hour. She walks 4 blocks east and 2 blocks west. Her average velocity is?
1 answer:
Let us consider the following figure
<em>figure</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>pict</em><em>ure</em>
So, his/her total displacement = 2 blocks.
total time = 1 hour
Average Velocity
= Total displacement/ total time
= 2 blocks/ 1 hour
= 2 blocks/ h
So, her/his average velocity is 2 blocks per hour.
