Question

A bicyclist, traveling with a constant speed, covers 61.Om in 7.80s.

Determine all unknowns.

S =

7.82

m/s

d =

61

m

t =

Answer 1

The velocity is 7.82 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we are going to solve for the velocity since what we are given as parameters are:

1. Distance covered s= 61m

2. time taken to cover the distance t= 7.8 secs

we know that the expression for velocity is given as

velocity= distance/time

We then substitute the given data into the formula to solve for velocity.

velocity= 61/7.8

velocity= 7.82 m/s

The velocity is 7.82 m/s
