If instead, the swimmer makes 30.5 laps in the same pool in 3 h, determine the total distance the swimmer traveled, the swimmer's total displacement, the swimmer's average velocity, and the swimmer's average speed.


-answer in km

How long is the pool?

That will certainly make a difference in the answer.

To determine the total distance the swimmer traveled, we need to know the length of one lap in the pool. Let's assume the length of one lap is l kilometers.

We are given that the swimmer made 28 laps in 2.5 hours. Therefore, the total distance traveled in this case can be calculated as follows:

Total distance = (Number of laps) x (Length of one lap)
Total distance = 28 x l km

Next, we are given that the swimmer made 30.5 laps in 3 hours. We can apply the same logic to calculate the total distance in this case:

Total distance = (Number of laps) x (Length of one lap)
Total distance = 30.5 x l km

To find the swimmer's total displacement, we need to know the starting and ending points of the swimmer. Without this information, we cannot determine the total displacement.

Average velocity is calculated by dividing the total displacement by the time taken. Since we don't know the displacement, we cannot calculate the average velocity.

Average speed is calculated by dividing the total distance traveled by the time taken. Therefore, to find the swimmer's average speed, we need to know the total distance traveled and the time taken in each scenario.

Please provide the length of one lap or any other missing information so we can proceed with the calculations.
