Only in some parts of the world which still cling to Imperial measures. The question does not specify any units of time and the answer is "average speed.".
If you divide the distance of your trip by the total time it took to make the trip, you calculate the average speed. That includes all the time you're stuck in traffic, gassing the car, and stopping to eat.
The first driver. Although their average speeds while on the road are the same, the overall average speed is the total distance divided by the total time.
30 divided by 75 = 0.4 x 100 = 40% of the trip was covered in the first day.
Average Speed is the distance traveled divided by the time it took to travel that distance.In this case, the distance traveled is 240 km, and the time is 3hrs.You do the calculation. (your answer will have the unit km/hr)
No, speed can vary and one can still calculate the average speed of an entire trip. Average speed is equal to the change in distance divided by the change in time.
Average Speed
It was the (total distance she traveled) divided by (her total time for the trip), in the direction from her point of departure to her point of arrival.
Not quite. Flip it. Average speed = (distance traveled) divided by the (time for the distance).
If only total distance and total time are considered, the speed calculated (total distance / total time) is the average speed of the entire trip.
Average speed = (distance traveled) divided by (time for the trip).
Average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the time taken.Average speed = total distance traveled/time taken = 90 km/3 h = 30kph
The time required is (distance from here to there) divided by (speed at which you make the trip) .
The total distance displaced divided by the total time elapsed is an object's average speed. Let's take an example to see if it makes more sense.Consider a bus making stops along a city street. It takes a certain amount of time to go from a given stop to another one a mile or so down that street. You got on the bus and you noted the time as it left your stop. You get off at your destination and note the time. You then take the total distance the bus (with you aboard) went between your stops and divide it by the time it took to make the journey. You will then have the average speed of the bus during that trip.
Subtract the time periods of the stationary phases from the total trip time, then divide the remaining time by the distance.
If you divide the distance of your trip by the total time it took to make the trip, you calculate the average speed. That includes all the time you're stuck in traffic, gassing the car, and stopping to eat.
