Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
distance = 5km
time taken to travel to school= 30 min
1. the total distance traveled is
from home to school+ school to home+ home back to school
5km+5km+5km= 15 km
2. Determine the students average speed
average speed is the total distance divided by the total time taken
= (5+5+5)/(30+30+27)
= 15/87 km/min
3 What is the student total displacement
the displacement tells how far a place is hence the displacement is 5km (i.e the school is 5km from his home)
4. Determine the students average velocity
a. speed home to school
v= 5/30= 0.166 km/min
b. school back home
v= 5/30= 0.166 km/min
c. speed home to school
v= 5/27= 0.185 km/min
Average velocity = (0.185 + 0.166 + 0.166)/3= 0.517/3= 0.17 km/min
