If instead, the swimmer makes 77.5 laps in the same pool in 1.5 h, determine the total distance the swimmer traveled, the swimmer's total displacement, the swimmer's average velocity, and the swimmer's average speed.
and your thinking is...? I will be happy to check your work.
I just have the the total distance traveled. 7750
avg speed=distancetraveled/timetotal
avg velocity=displacement/time=0/time
I put 5.17km/h because it asks for it in km also i put 0 for avg velocity and that's wrong
If you have swam one lap in a swimming pool, that means you have swam from one end to the other and back. In 1.5 h, a swimmer makes exactly 77 laps in a swimming pool that is 27 m long. Determine the distance the swimmer traveled, the total displacement of the swimmer, the swimmer's average velocity, and the swimmer's average speed.
oops, displacment is 77.5 laps, so he net displacment is the pool length. Avg velocity = displacement/time
To determine the total distance the swimmer traveled, you can multiply the number of laps swum by the length of the pool. The length of the pool is not provided, so you would need that information to calculate the total distance.
To determine the swimmer's total displacement, you need to know the starting and ending positions. Without this information, it is not possible to calculate the displacement.
To find the swimmer's average velocity, you can divide the total displacement by the total time taken. However, as mentioned before, the displacement is unknown, so the average velocity cannot be determined.
To calculate the swimmer's average speed, you can divide the total distance traveled by the total time taken. Without the length of the pool or the total distance, you cannot calculate the swimmer's average speed.
In order to fully answer the question, you would need additional information, such as the length of the pool or the starting and ending positions of the swimmer.
