He drove 20 miles in 50 min. so average was 20 x 60/50 = 24 mph
If you know average speed then you cannot determine the acceleration: the very nature of being a average hides all the increases and decreases in speed which are the accelerations (technically, acceleration is change of speed in a direction). All average speed tells you is the constant speed at which you require to travel to cover the given distance in the given time; as the speed is constant, the acceleration is zero.
Well, speed is equal to distance over time (s = d/t) However, velocity means speed WITH direction. This means that the teacher's drive to school would be a positive velocity, but the drive back would be a negative one. Now, let's calculate velocities using the s = d/t formula! Distance to school from home: speed = distance/time speed = +10 miles/20 minutes speed = 1/2 miles per minute Distance from school to home: speed = distance/time speed = -10miles/20 minutes speed = -1/3 miles per minute Note: the velocity towards home will be negative since we are travelling in the opposite direction of the distance to school (which is positive) We have our two velocities- let's calculate the average! 1/2 -1/3 = 1/6 1/6 divided by 2 = 1/12 Thus, our average velocity is 1/12 miles per minute! You can convert this into decimal values if required. Hope this helped! (:
Well, honey, 125 minutes is 2 hours and 5 minutes. It's not rocket science, just basic math. So, there you have it - 2 hours and 5 minutes.

Velocity is related to health in the sense that high velocity collisions are more damaging than low velocity collisions. Velocity is related to science in the sense that Newtonian mechanics deals with velocity.
What is Velocity
Velocity and volume are science words.
A. Hoffman has written: 'Thermodynamic Theory of Latent Image Formation (Progress Reports in Imaging Science & Technology)' 'The Golfer's Catalog'
