Question

Veronica’s velocity was measured as 4.3 m/s. She displaced 20 meters in 4.7 seconds. Which piece of information is missing for the correct calculation of velocity?

A. The Starting point
B. The direction
C. The end point
D. The time per meter

Answer 1

The answer it’s a ☂️☂️

Answer 2

The end point as when we multiply 4.3 x 4.7 we get 20.21 and if there is no end point in distance shown we can assume she displaced 20 meters in 4.7 and that 4.26 seconds had a larger end point.

However a starting and end point is always required.

Explanation:

4.7 x 20

Change minutes into seconds (so that the final result would be in meters per second) we do not have to do this as all time is already in seconds.

= 4.7 seconds, Divide the distance by time: velocity = 20/4.7 = 4.25531915

= 4.3 m/s
