You normally drive on the freeway between San Diego and Los Angeles at an average speed of $105$ km/h ($65$ mi/h), and the trip takes $1$ h and $50$ min. On a Friday afternoon, however, heavy traffic slows you down and you drive the same distance at an average speed of only $70$ km/h ($43$ mi/h). How much longer does the trip take?

Starting from the front door of a ranch house, you walk $60.0$ m due east to a windmill, turn around, and then slowly walk $40.0$ m west to a bench, where you sit and watch the sunrise. It takes you $28.0$ s to walk from the house to the windmill and then $36.0$ s to walk from the windmill to the bench. For the entire trip from the front door to the bench, what are your (a) average velocity? (b) average speed?

A car is stopped at a traffic light. It then travels along a straight road such that its distance from the light is given by $x(t)=bt^2-ct^3$, where $b = 2.40$ m/s² and $c = 0.120$ m/s³. Calculate the instantaneous velocity of the car at $t=0$, $t=5.0$ s, and $t=10.0$ s.

In an experiment, a shearwater (a seabird) was taken from its nest, flown $5150$ km away, and released. The bird found its way back to its nest $13.5$ days after release. If we place the origin at the nest and extend the $+x$–axis to the release point, what was the bird's average velocity in m/s for the return flight?

A car is stopped at a traffic light. It then travels along a straight road such that its distance from the light is given by $x\left(t\right)=b{t}^2-c{t}^3$, where $b=2.40$ m/s² and $c=0.120$ m/s³. Calculate the average velocity of the car for the time interval $t=0$ to $t=10.0$ s.
