Question

A person walks 60 meters in 1 minute. Then walks 30 meters in 2 minutes. What is their average speed over the 3 minute walk in meter per minute?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed of a body is the amount of distance it covers per unit time.

For the given problem, let us determine the speed in meters per minute

total distance traveled = 60+30 = 90 m

total time taken= 1+2 = 3 minutes

average speed per minute= total distance traveled/total time taken

=90/3 = 30 m/minute

Answer 2

Answer:

30 m/m

Explanation:

t1= 1 min

d1= 60 meters

12= 2mins

d2= 30 meters

avg speed= total distance /total time

avg speed= 90/3

avg speed= 30 m/m
