The balloon goes 25 m east in first 10 s.
Then the wind blows the balloon 35 m west in 8 s.
a
The balloon travels 25 m in 10s.
b
the balloon travels a distance 35 m in next 8 s.
c
thhe total distance travelled by the balloon is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} d=25+35 \\ =60\text{ m} \end{gathered}[/tex]d
Average speed in 10 s is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} s=\frac{25}{10} \\ =2.5\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]e
The average speed in next 8 s is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} s_8=\frac{35}{8} \\ =4.37\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]f
the average speed for the entire trip is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} s_{av}=\frac{25+35}{10+8} \\ =3.33\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]g
displacement during the first 10 s is.
[tex]d_1=(25m)\hat{i}[/tex]h.
displacement during next 8 s is,
[tex]d_2=(-35m)\hat{i}[/tex]i
The total displacement is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} d_1+d_2=(25-35)\hat{i}_{} \\ =-(10m)\hat{i} \end{gathered}[/tex]j
the average velocity in 10 s is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} v_1=\frac{25m}{10}\hat{i} \\ =(2.5m)\hat{i} \end{gathered}[/tex]k
The average velocity in 8 s is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} v_2=\frac{-35\text{ m}}{8\text{ s}}\hat{i} \\ =-(4.37m)\hat{i} \end{gathered}[/tex]l
The average velocity entire the whole trip is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} v_{av}=\frac{d_1+d_2}{18} \\ =\frac{-10m\hat{i}}{18\text{ s}} \\ =-(0.55\hat{m/s)i} \end{gathered}[/tex]
