Answer:
7.5 km/h (2.1 m/s) due east
Explanation:
The average velocity of the person is given by:
where
d is the displacement
t is the time taken
In this problem,
d = 15 km is the displacement
t = 2.0 h is the time elapsed
so the average velocity is
and the direction is the same as the displacement (east).
We can also convert the velocity into SI units (m/s). We have:
d = 15 km = 15,000 m
t = 2.0 h * 3600 s/h = 7200 s
