A jogger runs 6 km north, 5 km east, then another 4 km north. Her average speed 8 km/h. How long will it take her to complete her run?10. Using the information from the previous question, what is her average velocity during this time?

The time taken to complete her run is 1.9 hr.

Explanation:

Speed is a scalar quantity and it is defined as the ratio of distance covered to the time taken to cover that distance. As distance is also a scalar quantity, so the directions given in the problem can be ignored. Thus, the distance covered by the jogger is the sum of kilometers given in problem.

Distance covered = 6+5+4 = 15 km

And the speed is given as 8 km/hr.

So the time taken will be ratio of distance to speed.

So the jogger will take 1.9 hr to complete her run.

the right answer is 0.3 meters per second
