Answer :

The average speed of the plane is 816 m/s.

We need to know about the average speed to solve this problem. The average speed can be determined as the total distance divided by the total time. It can be written as

v = d / t

where v is average speed, d is distance and t is time.

From the question above, we know that

d1 = d2 = 430 km

v1 = 680 m/s

v2 = 1020 m/s

Because of the distance is the same, we can calculate the average speed as

v = 2d / (t1 + t2)

v = 2.d / (d/v1 + d/v2)

v = 2/(1/v1 + 1/v2)

v = 2/(1/680 + 1/1020)

v = 816 m/s
