Question

if jack was traveling north 120 miles and it took him 3 hours to get there. what is the velocity that jack was traveling? is this a scalar or vector ​

Answer 1

Velocity of an object is given as

`velocity = (displacement)/(time)`

now we have

`displacement = 120 miles`

time = 3 hours

now from above formula

`v = (120)/(3)`

`v = 40 miles/hour`

so its velocity is 40 mph and its a vector quantity whose direction is towards NORTH

correct answer is B
