hello

a discrete data is a set of data belonging to distinct and separate values.

a continuous data is a set of data in which the values belonging to the set can take any value within a finite or infinite interval.

the answer to this question should be continuous because the set of values (break values) ranges in velocity.

continuous data usually requires a measuring device
