Question

On vacation, Aria went scuba diving in the Pacific Ocean for the very first time. She rose toward the surface of the water at a steady speed for 4 minutes. She rose 36 meters in that time. What was her speed?

Answer 1

0.15m/s

Explanation: Given that

time = 4mins = 60×4

= 240secs

Distance = 36meters

Speed = distance/time

Speed = 36/240

Speed = 0.15m/s

Hence, the speed is 0.15m/s
