Question

What is the average speed (m/s) of a sprinter who runs 10.5 meters in16.5 seconds?

Answer 1

Given

x: distance

x = 10.5m

t: seconds

t = 16.5s

Velocity

Procedure

$\begin{gathered} v=\frac{x}{t} \\ v=\frac{10.5m}{16.5s}_{} \\ v=0.63m/s \end{gathered}$

The velocity of the sprinter would be 0.63 m/s
