Define speed.
Speed is a measure of how fast an object is moving.
Speed is a numerical description of how far apart two things are.
Speed is the change in position with time of one object compared to another object.
Which of these is not a unit of speed?
metres per hour
metres per second
minutes per hour
Which equation can be used to calculate speed?
time = speed/ distance
speed = distance/ time
distance = speed/ time
speed = time/ distance
Calculate the speed of an object that travels 200m in 50s.
4 m/s
100 m/s
40 m/s
The speed equation can be rearranged to find distance. Which of these is the correct?
distance = time / speed
distance = speed / time
distance = speed x time
