To find the average velocity of the Westland Lynx helicopter, we need to use the formula for average velocity:<br /><br />\[ \text{Average velocity} = \frac{\text{Total displacement}}{\text{Total time}} \]<br /><br />Given:<br />- Total displacement = 3.33 km<br />- Total time = 30.0 s<br /><br />First, we need to convert the time from seconds to hours because the answer should be in kilometers per hour (km/hr).<br /><br />\[ 30.0 \text{ s} = \frac{30.0}{3600} \text{ hr} = 0.008333 \text{ hr} \]<br /><br />Now, we can calculate the average velocity:<br /><br />\[ \text{Average velocity} = \frac{3.33 \text{ km}}{0.008333 \text{ hr}} \approx 400.8 \text{ km/hr} \]<br /><br />Therefore, the closest answer is:<br /><br />\[ 401.2 \text{ km/hr} \]<br /><br />So, the correct choice is:<br /><br />\[ 401.2 \text{ km/hr} \]
