A car is travelling along a straight line and covers one-fourth of the total distance with a velocity of 10m/s. the remaining distance is covered with a velocity of 5m/s. calculate the average velocity of the car.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate the average velocity of the car based on the given information. ### Step 1: Define the total distance Let the total distance traveled by the car be \( D \). According to the problem, the car covers one-fourth of the total distance with a certain velocity. Thus, we can express the total distance as: \[ D = 4x \] where \( x \) is the distance covered in the first part. ...
