Question

If you move 50 meters in 10 seconds then what is your speed

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer:-

Given:-

• Distance 50 m
• Time 10 seconds

Concept:-

Speed Distance time relation

Let's Do!

We know that:-

Speed = Distance/Time

So, we are given:-

• Distance 50 m
• Time 10 seconds

We can say that:-

Speed = 50/10

So, speed is 5 m/s.

Note that:-

• The things were already in SI Units.
• Hence, not converted. In meter per second, it would be stable.

Answer 2

Answer:

Given :-

• Distance (d) = 50 m
• Time (t) = 10 seconds

To Find :-

• What is the speed.

Formula Used :-

$\boxed{\bold{\large{S\: =\: \dfrac{d}{t}}}}$

where,

• s = Speed in ms-¹
• d = Distance travelled in m
• t = Time taken in s

Solution :-

Given :

• Distance = 50 m
• Time = 10 seconds

According to the question by using the formula we get,

⇒ Speed = $\sf\dfrac{\cancel{50}}{\cancel{10}}$

➠ Speed = 5 m/s

$\therefore$ The speed will be 5 m/s .

✵ Extra Information ✵

❶ Speed :-

• Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered.
• Speed is a scaler quantity.

❷ Time :-

• Time is defined by its measurement.
• Time is a vector quantity.

❸ Distance :-

• Distance is the total movement of an object without any regard to direction.

❖ Important Formula ❖

✦ Speed = $\dfrac{Distance}{Time}$

✦ Distance = Speed × Time

✦ Time = $\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}$
