A person travels by car from Tucson to Phoenix at a constant speed of 75 km/hr. They then return from Phoenix to Tucson at a constant speed of 65 km/hr. What was their average velocity?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]v=0[/tex]

Explanation:

Knowing that the formula for average velocity is:

[tex]v=\frac{x_{2}-x_{1}}{t_{2}-t_{1}}[/tex]

Being said that, we know that the person's displacement is zero because it returns to its starting point

[tex]x_{2}=x_{1}[/tex]

That means [tex]x_{2}-x_{1}=0[/tex]

[tex]v=\frac{0}{t_{2}-t_{1}}=0[/tex]
