Aɴsᴡᴇʀ:

• The required velocity = 3.972 m/s

Gɪᴠᴇɴ:

• The distance is 288 metres.
• The time taken is 70 seconds.

Nᴇᴇᴅ Tᴏ Fɪɴᴅ:

• The required velocity = ?

Solution:

Fᴏʀᴍᴜʟᴀ ᴜsᴇᴅ ʜᴇʀᴇ:

• Velocity = Distance/Time

Pᴜᴛᴛɪɴɢ ᴛʜᴇ ᴠᴀʟᴜᴇs:

➦ Required velocity = 278/70

➦ Required velocity = 3.972 m/s

Tʜᴇʀᴇғᴏʀᴇ:

• The required velocity is 3.972 m/s.
