Given data:

The distance traveled by car is d = 150 m.

The time taken by the car is t = 15 seconds.

Solution:

The velocity of the car is,


v=(d)/(t)

Substituting the known values,


\begin{gathered} v=(150)/(15) \\ v=10\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus, the velocity of the car is 10 meters per second towards the south.
