Calculating Average Speed

The formula to calculate average speed is-

• AS=total distance /total time

• AS= total time/total distance

• AS= mass/volume

• AS= volume times mass

Velocity is defined as-

• the relationship between the distance and time

• speed in a specific direction

• describes the location of an object

• the change in position over time

The formula to calculate speed is

• speed = distance x time

• speed= velocity over time

• speed = velocity x time

• speed = distance over time

Which of the following is NOT a unit of measurement for distance?

• miles

• kilometers

• minutes

• meters

Define speed

• the amount of average speed in a given distance

• the change in time over a specific distance

• the change in distance over a specific time

• the amount of meters traveled over time

• neither answer is correct

What type of graph is shown above?

• distance/time

• speed/time

• velocity/time

• average speed/time
