Question

2. An NFL wide receiver prospect runs 40 m in 4.5 seconds. What is the average speed of the wide receiver

(m/s)?

Answer 1

8.89 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed of an object in motion can be calculated as:

`v=(d)/(t)`

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time taken

In this problem,

d = 40 m

t = 4.5 s

Substituting into the equation,

`v=(40)/(4.5)=8.89 m/s`
