Question

What is the speed of a car that traveled 56 m in 4 seconds?

Answer 1

`\boxed {\boxed {\sf 14 \ meters \ per \ second}}`

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is the rate of motion and can be found by dividing the distance by the time.

`s=(d)/(t)`

The distance covered is 56 meters and the time taken is 4 seconds.

`d= 56 \ m \\t= 4 \ s`

Substitute the values into the formula.

`s=(56 \ m)/(4 \ s)`

Divide.

`s= 14 \ m/s`

The speed of the car is 14 meters per second
