Average Speed= Total Distance/Total Time
=(100+30)/(1+2)
=(130miles)/(3hours)
=43.333mph

A car travels 100 miles east in 2 hours and 30 miles north in one hour. What is the average speed of the car?
average velocity = miles/hours = (100 + 30)/(2 + 1) = 130/3 ≈ 43.33 miles/hour
What is the average speed of a boat if it travels 16 miles due north in 2 hours and 24 miles due west in 2 hours?
10 miles per hour speed is not a vector quantity, therefore direction does not matter. 16 miles/ 2 hours=8 mph 24 miles/ 2 hours=12 mph (8+12)/2=10 mph average
A boat travels due east for a distance of 15 miles. It then travels due north for distace of 20 miles. How many miles is the boat from it's starting point?
25 miles.
A boat travels due East for a distance of 15miles it then travels due North for a distance of 20miles at which point it drops anchor how many miles is the boat from its statring point?
25 miles
If a boat travels due East for a distance of 15 miles then it travels due North for a distance of 20 miles at which point it drops anchor then how many miles is the boat from its starting point?
This is a question based on Pythagoras. The answer is sqrt[(15)2 + (20)2] = 25 miles

Find the velocity of a truck that travels 75 miles north in 2.5 hours?
Speed = Distance divided by Time. So, speed = 75 miles divided by 2.5 hours = 75 / 2.5 = 30 miles per hour. Velocity is speed and direction, so the velocity is 30 mph Northbound.

What is the velocity of an car that travels 50 miles north turns around and travels 50 miles south in 5 hours Question 6 options 0 2 mph south 5 mph south 25 mph north?
The car's net displacement is 0 miles (north 50 miles - south 50 miles). Since the total time taken is 5 hours, the velocity is 0 mph because velocity is displacement divided by time, resulting in 0 mph.
