LIULIS.
What would happen to speed if distance increased in the same amount of time?

Answer 1

The speed will be increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can better understand this analysis, if we use numerical values and remember the expression or formula for speed. We know that speed is defined as the distance travelled at a given time.

`v=(x)/(t) \\where:\\v = velocity [m/s]\\x = distance [m]\\t = time [s]\\`

So if we have the distance x = 4 [m] and the time 2 [s], the speed will be:

v = (4/2) = 2 [m/s]

And if we increase the distance to x = 10 [m] at the same time 2[s], the speed will be:

v = (10/2) = 5 [m/s]

So we can see that the speed is increased.
