Question

An airplane flies 1,592 miles east from phoenix, Arizona, to Atlanta, Georgia, in 3.68 hours. What is the average velocity of the plane? Round your answer to the nearest whole number

Answer 1

433 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

`Velocity =(Distance)/(Time )`...Eq(1)

Here,

Distance =1,592 miles

Time=3.68 hours

Putting the value of distance and Time in the Eq(1) We get

Velocity =
`(1592\ miles)/(3.68\ hours)`

`Velocity = 432.608\ mph\\Velocity = 433 mph`

therefore Average velocity is 433 mph
