Question

An object moves a distance of 10 meters in 5 seconds. What is the average speed of the object?

a
50 m/s
b
0.5 m/s
c
40 m/s
d
2.0 m/s

Answer 1

To find the average speed of an object, we divide the distance traveled by the time taken. Plugging in the values given, we have:

Average speed = 10 meters / 5 seconds = 2.0 m/s

Therefore, the average speed of the object is 2.0 m/s.
