<h3>Speed between point A and B</h3>

= Total Distance/Total time

= 30/3

= 10 km/h

<h3>Average speed for this ride</h3>

Average speed = Total distance travelled/time taken

= 50/6

= 8.3 km/h

Answer:

The velocity of wind with respect to cyclist is $-15.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j}$ .

Explanation:

speed of cyclist = 12 km/h east

speed of wind = 5 km/h south west

Write the speeds in the vector form

$\overrightarrow{vc} = 12 \widehat{i}\\\\overrightarrow{vw} = - 5 (cos 45 \widehat{i} + sin 45 \widehat{j})\\\\\overrightarrow{vw} =-3.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j}$

The velocity of wind with respect to cyclist is

$\overrightarrow{vw} =-3.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j}\overrightarrow{v_(w/c)} = \overrightarrow{vw}-\overrightarrow{vc}\\\\\overrightarrow{v_(w/c)} = - 3.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j} - 12 \widehat{i}\\\\\overrightarrow{v_(w/c)} =-15.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j}$
