PROBLEM 1
An object traveled a distance of 100 m in 10 s, what is the speed of the object?
[tex]\textsf{Given:}\begin{cases} \sf d = 100 \: m\\ \sf t = 10 \: s\\ \sf s = ?\\ \end{cases}[/tex]
[tex]\textsf{Formula:} \: \sf s = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]\textsf{Solution:} \: \sf s = \frac{100 \: m}{10 \: s} = \underline{\sf 10 \: m/s}[/tex]
PROBLEM 2
A car moved 500 m in 20 s, what is the speed of the car?
[tex]\textsf{Given:}\begin{cases} \sf d = 500 \: m\\ \sf t = 20 \: s\\ \sf s = ?\\ \end{cases}[/tex]
[tex]\textsf{Formula:} \: \sf s = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]\textsf{Solution:} \: \sf s = \frac{500 \: m}{20 \: s} = \underline{\sf 25 \: m/s}[/tex]
PROBLEM 3
A truck travels 110 miles in 2 hours. What is the average speed of the truck?
[tex]\textsf{Given:}\begin{cases} \sf d = 500 \: miles\\ \sf t = 2\: hrs\\ \sf s = ?\\ \end{cases}[/tex]
[tex]\textsf{Formula:} \: \sf s = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]\textsf{Solution:} \: \sf s = \frac{110 \: miles}{2 \: hrs} = \underline{\sf 55 \: miles/hr}[/tex]
