A Car travels from stop A to B with a speed 30 km/hr and then returns back to A with a speed of 50 km/hr.Find :- a) Displacement b) Distance c) Average Velocity d) Average Speed of the Car

we need time of travels to fine replacement an distance.
@aryandecoolest
ok see here the formula to find average speed, if at xkm/hr is the certain distance covered and same distance is covered at ykm/hr, then average speed= 2xy/x+y
now average velocity=total distance/total time
and displacement will be zero bcoz he is back to his initial positon....
@aryandecoolest thanks once again
anytime :) @Greaty
but next time I won't thank u becoz i am tired..!! :)
hahaha!! never mind @Greaty
@aryandecoolest can u say the answers just to verify pls
@Greaty what's your avg sped?
37.5
good, then next?
No idea
yeah so need to understand since there is no time mentioned we cannot find out distance. @Greaty
so what to do ?
see the thing is.. find distance in terms of time. Like your distance traveled will be, D= 150T/8, where T=total time taken .
please make sure ...problem is correct :) @Greaty
i am confused i can't understand
@Abhisar
ok...let's start fresh
a) Displacement: Since the car travels back to its origin point i.e A, displacement will be zero. Got it ?
b)Distance: As @aryan said, we can not find the distance since time is not given
There ?
Oh now its clear.Thanks @Abhisar And @aryandecoolest :)
