What is speed?

Back

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

Front

How do you calculate speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What is the formula for calculating distance?

Back

Distance = Speed x Time.

Front

What is the formula for calculating time?

Back

Time = Distance / Speed.

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to how fast an object is moving, while velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction.

Front

What is the scientific method?

Back

The scientific method is a systematic process used to investigate phenomena, acquire new knowledge, or correct and integrate previous knowledge.

Front

What is a constant speed?

Back

Constant speed means that an object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time, regardless of how small those intervals are.

If a soccer ball travels 15 feet in 3 seconds, what is its speed?

Back

5 feet per second.

Front

If Kermit rides his bike at a constant speed of 12 miles per hour, how far will he travel in 2 hours?

Back

24 miles.

Front

What is the average speed of an object?

Back

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