Answer:
a) Average speed = 200 Km/hr
b) Average velocity = 0 m/s
c) Total distance = 800 Km
d) Total displacement = 0 Km
Explanation:
a) Let the speed of the plane from Addis Ababa to Gamble be represented by , and from Gamble to Addis Ababa by
.
Average speed =
=
=
= 200 Km/hr
=
=
= 200 Km/hr
Average speed =
= 200 Km/hr
b) Velocity =
Average velocity =
Since the plane flies from Addis Ababa to Gamble, then back to Addis Ababa, its total displacement is zero.
So that,
Average velocity = 0 m/s
c) Total distance = 400 Km + 400 Km
= 800 Km
d) Total displacement = 400 Km + (-400 Km)
= 0 Km
