Question

1. Black Panther ran 567.5 ks to the east in 2.3 hours then tumed around and ran 2218 km to

the west in 1.2 hours. What was his average velocity during the trip in km/h?

Answer 1

Answer:Average Velocity of the trip=98.77km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Black Panther started his journey with

Distance ran towards east = 567.5km

Time ran towards east = 2.3 hours

and then turned back,

Distance ran towards west, = 2218 km

Time taken towards west, = 1.2 hours

Let us treat the westward movement as negative movement of the east

So total displacement =567.5 km east + (-2218km east )= 1,650.5km

But it seems the value of the distance ran west is wrong , because i do not think he can run 2218km under 1.2hours considering he ran 567.5m due east at 2.3hours .

So Let we use 221.8 km as distance ran due west.

So that Total Displacement becomes = 567.5 km east + (-221.8km east )= 345.7km

Total time = 2.3 + 1.2 = 3.5hrs.

Average velocity = Total displacement / total time

.345.7km / 3.5hr = 98.77km/h
