S POINTS EACH] You walk from the park to your friend's house (in forty minutes), then to your house in twenty minutes), and finally to the library (in fifteen minutes). A) 8) C) D) What is the distance traveled? What is your displacement? What is your average speed for the entire trip? What is your average velocity for the entire trip? What is your average speed for the trip from your friend's house to 1A) 4 1B) -0.6 1c) 3.2 the library? 1E) 5. 2 F) What is your average velocity for the trip from your friend's house to the library? Your house Park a1+x Library Friend's 0.75 mi house 0.60 mi 0.35 mi at

Answer 1

Displacement is the shortest distance = final position - intitial position

initial position = park final position = library

shortest distance between park and library  = 0.60 = 0.60 miles

average velocity = total displacement / total time = 0.60/( 1.25)= 0.48 miles /hr
