8. A person takes a trip, driving with a constant speed of 99.5 km/h, except for a 22.0-min rest stop. If the person's average speed is 63.8 km/h, find the following. How much time is spent on the trip? (h) How far does the person travel? (km)

Expert Solution
Step 1

constant speed (u) = 99.5 kmhr duration of rest (t1) = 22 min = 2260 hr = 0.367 hr Average speed of trip (vavg.) = 63.8 kmhr
