mohan travels at 20m/s from home to market and returns back at 25m/s.Find his average velocity for the entire journey
Answers
Answer:
22.22m/s
Explanation:
let , the distance be d meter
Time taken when he go to market from home =
d/20 sec
Time taken when he go to home from market =
d/25 sec
Total distance = d+d = 2d mt.
Total time = d/20 + d/25 = 45d/500 sec
Then, average velocity = 2d/(45d/500) = 1000/45 = 200/9= 22.22 m/s.
Concept:
When an item is moving, its velocity is the rate at which its direction is changing as seen from a certain point of view and as measured by a specific unit of time. It is mathematically expressed as, v = displacement/ time
Given:
Displacement of mohan from home to market = 20m/s
Displacement of mohan from market to home = 25 m/s
Find:
We need to determine the average velocity of mohan for the entire journey
Solution:
The pace at which an object's direction changes when it is travelling is referred to as its velocity and is measured by a particular unit of time and from a particular point of view.
In mathematics, it is written as v = displacement/time.
A shift in an object's position is referred to as "displacement." It has a magnitude and a direction, making it a vector quantity.
Given that Mohan travels from his home to the market at 20 m/s and back at 25 m/s.
From the above-given condition, it has been observed that the displacement of Mohan was zero since he returns to its original place.
displacement = 0
We have the formula, velocity = displacement/time
v = 0/time = 0
Thus, the average velocity for the entire journey is 0.
