Answer:

80.08 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Black Panther ran 567.6 km to the east in 23 hours

Velocity = distance covered/time

Substitute the distance covered and time into the formula

Velocity = 567.6/23

Velocity = 24.68 km/h

then turned around and ran 221.8 km to the west in 1.2 hours.

Velocity = 221.8/1.2

Velocity = 184.83 km/h

What was his average velocity during the trip in km/h ?

Average velocity = (V + U)/2

Since the two velocity are opposite to each other, the average velocity will be:

Average velocity = (-24.68 + 184.83)/2

Average velocity = 160.15/2

Average velocity = 80.08 km/h

Therefore, his average velocity during the trip is 80.08 km/h
