Given:

V1 = 40.0 km/h

V2 = 60.0 km/h

T1 = 2h

T2 = 2h

Determine the average velocity.

Formula for average velocity.

Vave = (V1 + V2 )/ 2

Solution:

Substitute the given values to the formula for average velocity.

Vave = (40.0 km/h + 60 km/h)/2

Vave = 100 km/h /2

Vave = 50 km/h

Final answer:

The average velocity is 50 km/h.
