Question

humming bird flits from flower to flower. Over a period of 10 minutes, it travels 40 meters. The average speed of the humming bird is ___m/min.

Answer 1

Answer: it is 4 hope this helps

Answer 2

As we know that average speed is given by the ratio of total distance covered and total time of motion so we will have

`v_(avg) = (distance )/(time)`

now we have

distance covered = 40 meter

time taken by the bird = 10 minutes

now in order to find the average speed of the bird

`v_(avg) = (40)/(10)`

`v_(avg) = 4 meter/min`

so the average speed of the bird is 4 m/min
