Answer:

v=697.2km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the velocity is computed via the division of the distance traveled by the elapsed time:

V=(d)/(t)

The distance is clearly 1743 km and the time is:

t=2h+30min*(1h)/(60min) =2.5h

Thus, the velocity turns out:

$v=(1743km)/(2.5h)\\ \\v=697.2km/h$

Which is a typical velocity for a plane to allow it be stable when flying.

Best regards.
