Explanation:
Given that,
The time taken from A to B is 3 hours
The time from B to A = 5 hours
The total distance between A and B is 150 miles
The average velocity from A to B,
[tex]v=\dfrac{150}{3}=50\ mph[/tex]
The average velocity from B to A,
[tex]v=\dfrac{150}{5}=30\ mph[/tex]
As the velocity of an object is a vector quantity. It means when the car reaches the initial point, the displacement is 0. So, the average velocity is equal to 0.
