Answer:

The average speed is 1 m/s

The average velocity is 0

Explanation:

Given;

length of the pool, L = 50 m

time taken for the motion, t = 100 s

The total distance = 50 m + 50 m

The total distance = 100 m

The average speed = total distance / total time

                                  = 100 / 100

                                  = 1 m/s

The average velocity = change in displacement / change in time

change in displacement = 50 m - 50 m = 0

The average velocity = 0 / 100

The average velocity = 0
