A train moving at a constant speed of 70.0 km/h moves east for 45.0 min, then in a direction 55.0° east of due north for 25.0 min, and then west for 55.0 min. what is the average velocity of the train during this run? (let the +x-axis point towards the east and the +y-axis point towards the north.)

Respuesta :

We know the starting point and the ending point.  Find the vector that connects the starting point to the ending point, and then divide this by the total time elapsed (45.0 + 25.0 + 55) min.

The result will be your average velocity (a vector quantity).
