12. A car travels in a straight line with an average velocity of 80 km/h for 2.5h and then an average velocity of 40 km/h from 1.5 h (a) what is the total displacement for the 4 h trip? (b) What is the average velocity for the total trip? ​

a. Total displacement = 140 km/h

b. Average velocity = 35 km/h

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Average velocity A = 80 km/h

Time A = 2.5 hours

Average velocity B = 40 km/h

Time B = 1.5 hours

a. To find the total displacement for the 4 h trip;

Total time = Time A + Time B

Total time = 2.5 + 1.5

Total time = 4 hours

Next, we would determine the displacement at each velocity.

Mathematically, displacement is given by the formula;

Displacement = velocity * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Displacement A = 80 * 2.5

Displacement A = 200 km/h

Displacement B = 40 * 1.5

Displacement B = 60 km/h

Total displacement = Displacement A - Displacement B

Total displacement = 200 - 60

Total displacement = 140 km/h

b. To find the average velocity for the total trip;

Mathematically, the average velocity of an object is given by the formula;

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Average velocity = 35 km/h

multiple allele inheritance is traits controlled by more than 2 alleles (ex: pigeons having 3 alleles of one gene govern their feather color).
