A particle travels along a straight line...

A particle travels along a straight line. It covers halg the distance with a speed (v). The remaining part of the distance was covere with speed `v_(1)` for half the time and with speed `v_(2)` for the other half the time . Find the average speed of the particle over the entire motion.

AI Generated Solution

To find the average speed of the particle over the entire motion, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the total distance Let the total distance traveled by the particle be \( s \). According to the problem, the particle covers half of this distance with speed \( v \) and the remaining half with different speeds. ### Step 2: Calculate time taken for the first half of the distance For the first half of the distance \( \frac{s}{2} \) covered with speed \( v \): \[ ...
