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
Just divide the distance by the time. (In this case, the speed in the answer will be in meters per second.)
No, you cannot.
distance = rate x timedistance = (6.0m/sec)(8.0 sec)distance = 54 m
If an object is travelling 100 meters in 1400 seconds, then it is travelling (100 / 1400) or about 0.0714 meters per second.

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.
Just divide the distance by the time. (In this case, the speed in the answer will be in meters per second.)
No, you cannot.
speed
Velocity = Delta-x / Delta-t, where x is position, t is time, and "Delta" is the "Change in" operator.Velocity is a vector, so I probably should have written x as x, or x-arrow, or some other notation to indicate it was a vector quantity, but putting an arrow hat on something is a little difficult to do here, and just making it bold is kind of subtle and could be missed.Speed is the magnitude of the velocity vector.
Th eobject traveled 82 meters in 42 seconds, so average speed is 82/42 = m/s = 1.95 m/s
distance = rate x timedistance = (6.0m/sec)(8.0 sec)distance = 54 m
You first need to acquire more data. Since Velocity is equal to Displacement traveled divided by Time (v=s/t) if you know the distance traveled by the object and the time it has taken the velocity can be computed. watch those units though. if your measuring in meters and timing in seconds your velocity will be in meters/second so this needs to be converted if you are looking for miles or kilometers/hour

30 meters subtends 100 seconds of arc.I get a distance of 61,879 meters.
Ignoring air resistance, it would be 706 meters .
If an object moves 50 meters in 5 seconds, its average speed is 50/5 = 10 meters per second.
