If you travel from yakima to ellensburg (yakima to ellensburg is 50 miles) with a speed of 60 miles/hour for half of the
trip and 80 miles/hour the other half of the trip. what is your average speed?

.

Explanation:

The average speed of an object is equal to total distance over total time.

How much time is taken? This trip is divided into two halves, each of distance .

Time spent on the first half of the trip:

.

Similarly, time spent on the second half of the trip:

.

In total:

.

Average speed:

.

This value turned out to be slightly different from the average of the speed during the two halves of the journey. The reason is that the object traveled at each speed for a different amount of time. It spent more time at the slower speed, which gives that speed a greater weight in the average. That explains why the average speed is closer to rather than .

explanation:

newton's third law, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

report!

explanation:

physics means: "the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. the subject matter of physics, distinguished from that of chemistry and biology, includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."
