Ok, SO if the cyclist travels 12 km/h and he travels for 5 hours, 12 x 5 is 60 so 60 kilometers.
total velocity * * * * * It is the average speed, not velocity which is a vector.
Average speed = (distance covered) divided by (time to cover the distance)
Average Velocity
a high speed train travels south for 2.00 h for a distance of 454km. what is its average velocity?
sharon sprinter changes her speed from 4.5m/s to 7.5m/s in the middle 1.5 seconds of a 100m race. what is her average velocity for this time period?
Average velocity is def.ined as the ratio of total displacement to total time taken.
You can calculate average speed by dividing the total distance travelled by the total time of travel. To go from speed to velocity, you would also need to determine the vector (direction of travel).
The product of velocity and time yields distance travelled if the velocity is constant for the time in question. If velocity is not constant, one must first calculate the average velocity over a given time period before multiplying it by the time involved.
The average velocity in a particular direction = distance travelled in that direction / time taken. Velocity is a vector so the direction is important. If I go from A to B and then return to A my average velocity will be zero. My speed, on the other hand, will not be zero.
You calculate a rockets average velocity the same way you calculate the average velocity of anything else, a car, a running dog, or a stick floating on a stream. Velocity equals distance divided by time. It does not matter if your rocket traveled five thousand kilometers in one hour or if your car traveled 30 miles in one hour even if it stopped for gas along the way, you use the same formula.
No. Average speed is.
Velocity x time = distance
Time and velocity
No. Average velocity is still a velocity.Distance is a product of (a velocity or speed) times (a length of time).
total velocity * * * * * It is the average speed, not velocity which is a vector.
average velocity x time
Distance = time * average speed (velocity) Average speed = Distance/time
