A long distance trucker traveled 280 miles in one direction during a storm The return trip in rainy weather was accomplished at double the speed and took 5 hours less time find the going speed?
At double the speed, it's presumable that the five hours less is half of the time the trip took in the one direction - hence, the first trip took 10 hours. To travel 280 miles in ten hours, the average speed would be 28 MPH, and to halve that on the return trip, the average speed would be 56 MPH
What is the calculated speed over an entire trip called?
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.
A car took 3hrs to complete a 240 km trip what was its average speed?
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)
Is speed that does not vary is called average speed?
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.
John is taking a trip by car How could he compute his average speed in miles per hour?
Take the distance in miles, and divide it by the time, in hours, it took to drive there.

At the start of the trip a car's speedometer reads 34627km it ends at 35118 The trip took 8hrs What is the average speed?
Average speed = (distance traveled) / (time interval) = (35,118 - 34,627) / 8 = 491/8 = 61.375 km/hr.

An aircraft carrier made a trip to Guam and back The trip there took three hours and the trip back took four hours It averaged 6 km per hour on the return trip Find the average speed of the trip there?
If it averaged 6 kph on the trip back and took 4 hours, the distance of one way was 24 kilometers. If the trip there took three hours, 24 kilometers / 3 hours= 8 kph

Is the average of the total speed for an entire trip instantaneous speed?
by jumping
Can the average speed ever exceed the maximum speed for a trip?
No, the average speed will always be between the minimum and maximum speeds.
What is adverage speed?
Average speed = (distance traveled) divided by (time for the trip).
Is speed that does not vary is called average speed?
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.
John is taking a trip by car How could he compute his average speed in miles per hour?
Take the distance in miles, and divide it by the time, in hours, it took to drive there.
If you consider the total distance and total time for a trip are you calculating an instantaneous speed or constant speed average speed or non-uniform speed?
If only total distance and total time are considered, the speed calculated (total distance / total time) is the average speed of the entire trip.
What is the total distance divided by the total time for a trip?
Average Speed
