Answer: 120 km/h north.

Explanation: Speed is distance traveled per block of time. As an equation, this is 

Speed = distance/time

In your problem, the given distance is 300km, and the time is 2.5 hours.

Plugging into the equation,

Speed = 300km / 2.5 h

Speed = 120 km/h

Velocity is speed and direction. 

The velocity would be 120 km/h north.
