Speed - Distance - Time

Front

What is speed?

Back

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time, typically measured in meters per second (m/s).

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What is the unit of speed in the International System of Units (SI)?

Back

The unit of speed in SI is meters per second (m/s).

Front

If a car travels 150 kilometers in 2 hours, what is its average speed?

Back

Average speed = Distance / Time = 150 km / 2 h = 75 km/h.

Front

What is the average speed of a runner who covers 800 meters in 400 seconds?

Back

Average speed = Distance / Time = 800 m / 400 s = 2 m/s.

Front

How do you convert kilometers per hour (km/h) to meters per second (m/s)?

Back

To convert km/h to m/s, divide by 3.6.

Front

What is the relationship between distance, speed, and time?

Back

Distance = Speed × Time.

Front

What does the term 'average speed' mean?

Back

Average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken.

Front

What is the average speed of a tree sloth that moves at 0.743 m/s for 22.3 meters?

Back

Time = Distance / Speed = 22.3 m / 0.743 m/s = 30.0 s.

Front

What key word indicates that you are measuring distance?

Back

The key word is 'how far'.
