s = = xtxt 20 m 4 s s = 5 m/s Not direction dependent! A B x = 20 m Time t = 4 s
3
v = 3 m/s at 20 0 N of E Direction required! A B s = 20 m Time t = 4 s d= 12 m 20 o
4
Recall that average speed is a function only of total distance and total time: Total distance= 200 m + 300 m = 500 m Avg. speed 8.33 m/s Direction does not matter! start x 1 = 200 mx 2 = 300 m
5
x o = 0 t = 60 s x 1 = +200 mx f = -100 m x 0 = 0 m; x f =200-300= -100 m Direction of final displacement is to the left as shown. Average velocity: Note: Average velocity is directed to the west.

Instantaneous speed: the speed at any given instant in time. Average speed: the average of all instantaneous speeds; found simply by a distance/time ratio.
