Average speed = distance/time = 20 metres per second.
100m = 0.1 km
5secs = 0.0013888 hrs
Speed = 0.1/0.0013888... = 72 kmph
Instantaneous speed is the speed at a particular moment in time.The average speed of an object tells you the (average) rate at which it covers distance
speed = distance / time. In travelling over a distance, the speed may vary. The average speed is the constant speed that covers the given distance in the given time. First convert the time to hours and fractions of hours: 45min = 45/60 hrs = 0.75hrs 3hr 45min = 3.75hrs Now divide: average speed = 180 / 3.75 = 48 mph.
Average acceleration = change in speed/time for the change = 15/5 = 3 meters per second2 .
Average speed = (distance covered) divided by (time to cover the distance)
average speed = distance / time
Instantaneous speed is the speed at a particular moment in time.The average speed of an object tells you the (average) rate at which it covers distance
as the moving object covers some distance in some interval of time and average speed is obtained by dividing the total distance travelled by total time taken
Just divide the distance by the time.
Distance = time * average speed (velocity) Average speed = Distance/time
speed = distance / time. In travelling over a distance, the speed may vary. The average speed is the constant speed that covers the given distance in the given time. First convert the time to hours and fractions of hours: 45min = 45/60 hrs = 0.75hrs 3hr 45min = 3.75hrs Now divide: average speed = 180 / 3.75 = 48 mph.
The distance from Southampton to New York is 3400 miles (not nautical) and the ships covers this distance in about 170 hrs, so the average speed would be just over 20 miles per hour.
Average acceleration = change in speed/time for the change = 15/5 = 3 meters per second2 .
(60 + 40) ÷ 2 = 50 kmh
(distance the object covers in some time) divided by (length of time to cover that distance) is the object's average speed during that time.
Average speed = (distance covered) divided by (time to cover the distance)
average speed = distance / time
speed = distance/time = 3/2.4 = 1.25 distance units/second
