Question

An athlete is running on a circular track. He runs a distance of 600 m in 30 s before returning to his original position. What is his average speed and velocity? *​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation: Total distance travelled =600 m

total displacement= 0, as he returns to his original position

total time= 30 seconds

solution:  I) Average speed=total distance covered /total time taken

                                           600/30= 20m/s

                II)Average velocity =total displacement/total time taken

                                                  0/30= 0 m/s
