The answer is t/3 seconds.
GIVEN
Rob drove to the nearest hospital with an average speed of v m/s in t seconds. He drives home on the same path, but with an average speed of 3v m/s
TO FIND
How long is the return trip home in terms of t?
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the above problem as follows;
It is given,
Average speed of Rob to reach hospital = v m/s
Time taken = t seconds.
Applying the formula to calculate the distance covered by Rob
Distance = speed × time
Distance covered by Rob = vt meters.
Now,
Speed of Rob from hospital to Home = 3v m/s
Distance = vt meters.
Solving for time,
Time = Distance/speed.
putting the values in the above formula we get,
Time = vt/3v
Time = t/3 seconds.
Hence, The answer is t/3 seconds.
