Answer:

60km/hr due east

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Displacement = 60km East

Start time = 10am

End time = 11am

Unknown:

Average velocity = ?

Solution:

The average velocity is the displacement divided by the time taken.

For this journey, the time taken is;

11am - 10am = 1hr

So;

Average velocity =
(60km)/(1hr) = 60km/hr due east
