Question

Anne Runs from one side of a park to the other. The park is 80 meters across. She takes 16 seconds to go to the park. What is the speed of Anne?

Answer 1

The speed can be calculated using the formula below:

`speed=\frac{dis\tan ce}{\text{time}}`

In this question:

Distance = 80 meters (distance of the park).

Time = 16 secons.

Substituting the values:

`\begin{gathered} speed=(80)/(16) \\ speed=5\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}`

Answer: The speed of Anne is 5 m/s.
