Question

In a video game, a flying coconut moves at a constant velocity of 20 meters/second. The coconut hits an obstacle and moves in the opposite direction with a constant velocity of 10 meters/second. What’s the change in velocity of the coconut?

A. -30 m/s
B. -10 m/s
C. 10 m/s
D. 30 m/s

Answer 1

Change in velocity = Final velocity - Initial velocity

Initial velocity = 20 m/s
Final velocity = 10 m/s

Change in velocity = 10 - 20 = -10m/s

Correct option B
