Question

A body of mass m moving along a straight line covers half the distance with a speed of 2ms-1. The
remaining half of distance is covered in two equal time intervals with a speed of 3 ms-1 and 5 ms-1
respectively. The average speed of the particle for the entire journey is​

Answer 1

ANSWER:

3/8 ms−1

Explanation:

Let the total distance travelled by the body is 2s.If t

1

is the time taken by the body to travel first half of the distance ,then

t

1

=

2

S

Let t

2

be the time taken by the body for each time interval for the remaining hal journey.

S=3t
