Question

An object travels 16 m in 4s and then another 16 m in 2 s.
What is the average speed of the
object?​

Answer 1

Answer:

2m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

16m + next 16m = 32m

4s + next 2s = 6s

speed = distance/time

= 32m/6s

= 2m/s

Answer 2

Given:-

An object travels 16 m in 4s and then another 16 m in 2 s.

To find:-

What is the average speed of the object?

STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION:

First object

distance = 16m

time = 4.5

speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$$= \frac{16 \: m}{4 \: s}$= 4 m/s

Second object

distance = 16m

time = 2.5

speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$$= \frac{16 \: m}{2.5}$= 8 m/s
