The distance travelled in a given time is a means of measuring the speed. For instance, at a constant 60 mph (miles per hour) means that in one hour (60 minutes) the distance travelled is 60 miles.

It is the distance travelled in a given direction divided by the time taken to cover that distance.


How is speed defined?

The distance travelled divided by time. Distance/time = speed


Define speed as a rate and define velocity as speed in a given direction?

Speed is the rate at which an object covers distance, calculated as distance traveled divided by the time taken. Velocity, on the other hand, includes both the speed and direction of the object's motion. It is a vector quantity that specifies the speed and direction of motion.


What is the ratio of distance travelled to time?

It is the average speed.

How do you determine the speed?

Measure the distance travelled in a given time. speed is distance divided by time so if a ball moved 100 metres in 5 seconds it is travelling at (100/5)m/s 20m/s

Not sure what you mean exactly. At constant velocity, the distance travelled is proportional to the time.
