Question

(II) A horse canters away from its trainer in a straight line, moving 116 $\mathrm{m}$ away in 14.0 $\mathrm{s}$ . It then turns abruptly and gallops halfway back in 4.8 $\mathrm{s}$ . Calculate $(a)$ its average speed and (b) its average velocity for the entire trip, using "away from the trainer" as the positive direction.
