Answer:

The average velocity for this trip is 0 km/hr

Explanation:

We know that average velocity = total displacement/total time.

Now, its displacement is d = final position - initial position.

Since the  car starts and ends at its initial position at Hither, if we assume its initial position is 0 km, then its final position is also 0 km.

So, its displacement is d = 0 km - 0 km = 0 km.

Since the total time for the round trip is 2 hours, the average velocity is

total displacement/ total time = 0 km/2 hr = 0 km/hr.

So the average velocity for this trip is 0 km/hr
