This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Katie Ledecky swims the length of a 50m Olympic size pool in 25 seconds and swims the return trip to the starting position in 26 seconds. What are her average velocities during:
a) The first half of the swim?
b) The second half of the swim?
Answer:
a) her average velocities during the first half = 2 m/s
b) her average velocities during the second half = 1.923 m/s
Explanation:
Given that;
displacement = 50 m
time taken t = 25 secs
a)
average velocity = displacement / time taken = 50 / 25 = 2 m/s
Therefore her average velocities during the first half = 2 m/s
b)
In the second half;
displacement = 50 m
time taken t = 26 secs
average velocity = displacement / time taken = 50 / 26 = 1.923 m/s
Therefore her average velocities during the second half = 1.923 m/s
