A particle travels at a constant velocity of 3ms–1 for 20s. Then it stops for 10s before completingits journey in another 30s at a constant velocity of 2 ms–1. Its average velocity for the wholejourney is [ ]a) 2 ms–1 b) 2.4 ms–1 c) 2.7 ms–1 d) 3 ms–1 |

Answer» Given : Velocity FOT FIRST 20 sec = 3m/s Velocity fot another 30 sec = 2m/s To find : Average velocity for the whole journey = ? Solution :
Distance = speed × Time = 20 × 3 = 60m
Distance = speed × Time = 30 × 2 = 60m
= 60 + 60 / (30+20+ 10) =120 / 60 = 2m/s The average velocity of the particle is 2m/s |
