Question

Anjali swims ina 90m long pool she covers 180m in one minute by swimming from one end to the other and back along the same straight path find the average speed and average velocity of Anjali

Open in App
Solution

Length of the Pool= 90m
distance travelled by Anjali= 90m+90m=180m
Time taken = 1minute
So average speed= distance/time= 180m/1minute= 180 space m divided by m i n equals space 180 m divided by 60 space s e c equals space 3 space m space s e c to the power of negative 1 end exponent
Displacement = shortest distance between initial and final position=0
So velocity= displacement/time= 0/60 sec= 0
So velocity=0
