Answer:
a) 230 Km b) 76.7 km/h c) Please see below
Explanation:
a) If we can neglect the time while the driver accelerated, the movement can be divided in two parts, each of them at a constant speed:
⇒
b) The average x component of velocity, can be calculated applying the definition of average velocity, as follows:
If we choose t₀ = 0 and x₀ = 0, replacing xf and t by the values we have already found, we can find vavg,x as follows:
c) The found value of avg,x is not the same as the arithmetic average of the initial and final values of vx (70 Km/h) due to the time traveled at both velocities was not the same.
If the driver had droven half of the time (1.5 h) at 50 km/h and the other half at 90 km/h, total displacement would have been as follows:
Applying the definition of average velocity once more:
which is the same as the arithmetic average of the initial and final values of vₓ.
