\

Velocity graph of an accelerating car is shown.

\

(a)

\

Determine the average velocityof the car using the mid point rule during the first $\"\"$ seconds.

\

Average value of the function $\"\"$ on $\"\"$ is defined as $\"\"$ .

\

Average velocity of the car is $\"\"$ .

\

Consider the number of subintevals $\"\"$ .

\

Width of the interval $\"\"$ .

\

Mid points are $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$ .

\

Substitute $\"\"$ and corresponding velocity values from the graph.

\

$\"\"$

\

$\"\"$

\

Substitute above result in $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

Average velocity of the car is $\"\"$ Km/h.

\

$\"\"$

\

(b)

\

Find at what time instantaneous velocity is equal to the average velocity.

\

The condition nedd to check is $\"\"$ .

\

We have, $\"\"$ .

\

Observe the graph to determine at which interval of time corresponding velocity is $\"\"$ Km/h.

\

From the graph, it is clear that at $\"\"$ sec, instantaneous velocity is equal to the average velocity.

\

$\"\"$

\

(a) Average velocity of the car is $\"\"$ Km/h.

\

(b)

\

At $\"\"$ sec, instantaneous velocity is equal to the average velocity.
