It takes 8.0 min to find the report, after which the trip to school 42.0 km away to the east is resumed at the same speed as before.
What is the average speed for the entire trip ? What is the average velocity for the entire trip?
Homework Equations
speed av= total distance/delta t (change in t)
v av (average velocity)=delta x/delta t (change in x, change in t)
