Man moves at an average velocity of 5 meters per second.

What is his average velocity?

  • A man runs 300 m west in 60 seconds. He then runs 100m north-west in 20 seconds.
  • Average velocity is determined by dividing your displacement (a vector pointing from your initial location to your end position) by the total time, whereas average speed is determined by dividing the whole distance you went by the total time.
  • We divide the total distance traveled by the total time taken by an object to determine its average speed.

Man has traveled a total of 400 meters (300 + 100).

Total time required by man: 60 + 20 = 80 seconds.

average velocity is  400/80 = 5

Therefore, the average velocity of a man is 5 meters per second.
