Question

If it takes you 0.25 seconds to go 14.75 m, what is your speed?

Answer 1

Use the speed formula to find the answer. Remember that if a distance d is traveled during a time interval t, then the speed s is given by:

`s=(d)/(t)`

Substitute d=14.75m and t=0.25s:

`s=(14.75m)/(0.25s)=59(m)/(s)`

Therefore, your speed is:

`59(m)/(s)`
