Answer:

v = 1100km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity is the rate of change of position of an object and direction . velocity is a vector quantity. it has both magnitude and direction. Velocity indicates time, displacement and direction. The S.I unit of velocity is m/s. Other unit might be km/hr etc.

Velocity is the distance of an object divided by the time. Mathematically. it can be represented as

v = d/t

where v = velocity

d = distance

t = time

d = 4400km

t = 4 hrs

v = 4400/4

v = 1100km/hr
