Question

A small toy car travels 2.0 meters in 120 seconds. what is the speed of the car?

Answer 1

Answer:
`(1)/(60) ms^(-1)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of an object is defined as the ratio of the distance covered by the object to the time taken to cover that distance.

Let
`s` be the speed of the object.

Let
`D` be the distance travelled by the object.

Let
`t` be the time taken by the object.

So,
`s=(D)/(t)`

s=
`(2)/(120)=(1)/(60)ms^(-1)`

So,the speed of the car is
`(1)/(60)ms^(-1)`
