If air resistance can be ignored, the distance in meters is 4.9t2. Note that 4.9 is half the numerical value of Earth's acceleration (9.8 meters per second square).

What is the rate at which you cover a certain distance?

The rate that you cover a distance is your speed. Speed is a measure of the distance traveled per unit time. If your units are meters and seconds, then your speed would be in meters/second. To find the speed of something you divide the distance it traveled by the time it took to travel that distance. For example if something traveled 40 meters in 10 seconds its speed would be (40 meters)/(10 seconds) = 4 meters/second


How do you Determine the speed of an object that traveled 50 meters in 2 seconds?

Speed = (distance traveled) divided by (time to cover the distance) Speed = (50 meters) / (2 seconds) Speed = 50 meters per 2 seconds Speed = 25 meters per second


If you traveled 50 meters in 25 seconds what is your distance traveled and average speed?

2 meters every second. bit pointless


Distance traveled in feet after 12 seconds and 87 miles per hour?

1,531.2 feet in 12 seconds @87 mph


An automobile traveling at a velocity of 16 meters per second is brought to a full stop in 8 seconds The distance traveled in the 8 seconds is?

Speed= Distance / time => Distance = Speed x Time =16x8 = 128m


What is the distance covered by a freely falling object 5 seconds after it is dropped from rest?

0.7848 meter


Distance traveled in feet after 12 seconds at 87 miles per hour?

87 miles per hour = 1,531.2 feet per 12 seconds


What is the distance traveled in feet after 12 seconds at 87 miles per hour?

1 mile = 5,280 ft 87 miles in 1 hour = 87(5,280 ft) in 3,600 seconds = 459,360 ft. That is 127.6 ft in 1 second. So in 12 seconds the distance traveled will be 1,531.2 ft (12 x 127.6)


Does the total distance traveled divided by constant speed is an average speed?

No. If you divide a distance by a speed, you get a time, not a speed. For example, (meters) / (meters/second) = (seconds).


How many meters traveled in 50m s for 2.5 seconds?

speed = distance/time distance = speed x time = (50m/s) x (2.5s) = 125m


What is the distance traveled by an object that moves with an averace speed of 10 meters and 5 seconds?

Just divide the distance by the time. (In this case, the speed in the answer will be in meters per second.)


What two things must you know to determine average speed?

To determine average speed, you need to know what distance the object traveled in meters over how long it took the object to travel that distance in seconds.
