The formula, distance = speed x time, or speed = distance / time, assumes constant speed. If the speed changes, then the formula speed = distance / time will give you the average speed over the time period. To get the instantaneous speed in this case, you must divide distance / time for a very short time interval.
Rate of travel = (distance traveled) divided by (time traveled)
Speed Average speed- the total distance traveled divided by the time it takes to travel that distance Velocity is also the distance or displacement divided by the time
velocity
Speed Average speed- the total distance traveled divided by the time it takes to travel that distance Velocity is also the distance or displacement divided by the time
speed
this will result in speed
Distance/time = speed
speed
(a distance traveled) divided by (time to travel the distance) is known as a "speed" .
The average speed.
distance traveled divided by time taken to travel that far.
