George walks to a friend’s house. He walks 750 meters North, then realizes he walked too far. He turns around and walks 250 meters South. The entire walk takes him 13 seconds. What is his speed per second? What is his velocity in meters per second? I know the answer for the second one, velocity in meters per second is 38.46 m/s. But I'm really confused because since velocity = displacement/time. Displacement = final position - initial position. How can it equal 38.46 m/s since it should be 250 - 750 / t, not 750 - 250 / t? Please show the formula you use and explain it in an easy to understand way.
