A car covers distance with first one-third at velocity , second one-third at and last one-third at . If and , then the average velocity of the car is _____ .
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
Let the total distance be .
Time taken to cover {t}_{1} = \dfrac{d}{3{v}_{1}}{\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)}^{rd} of total distance is .
Time taken to cover {t}_{3} = \dfrac{d}{3{v}_{3}}= \dfrac{Totaldistance}{Totaltime}{v}_{avg} = \dfrac{d}{\dfrac{d}{3{v}_{1}} + \dfrac{d}{3{v}_{2}} + \dfrac{d}{3{v}_{3}}}⇒ {v}_{avg} = \dfrac{3\left({v}_{1}{v}_{2}{v}_{3}\right)}{{v}_{1}{v}_{2} + {v}_{2}{v}_{3} + {v}_{3}{v}_{1}}{v}_{1} = 11m{s}^{- 1}{v}_{3} = 33m{s}^{- 1}, {v}_{2} = 22m{s}^{- 1}{V}_{avg} = \dfrac{3 \times 11 \times 22 \times 33}{\left(11 \times 22\right) + \left(22 \times 33\right) + \left(33 \times 11\right)} = 18m{s}^{- 1}$
