Question

What is the average velocity of a car if it travels from position 25m to a position of -7m in 34 seconds?

Answer 1

vp = 0.94 m/s

Explanation

Formula

Vp = position/ time

position: Initial position - Final position

Position = 25 m - (-7 m) = 25 m + 7 m = 32 m

Then

Vp = 32 m / 34 seconds

Vp = 0.94 m/s

Answer 2

Average velocity = 0.94 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial position A = 25 m

Final position B = -7 m

Duration t = 34 s

Solution

Average Velocity

`v_(avg) =(Displacement)/(time) \\\\v_(avg) =(A-B)/(t) \\\\v_(avg) =(25-(-7))/(34) \\\\v_(avg) =0.94 m/s`
