1.if I drove 40 miles west in 2 hours what is my velocity
2.find the time it takes for a bird that travels 15 miles per hour for 3 hours ​

Respuesta :

1. v= 20 miles/hr

2. d = 45 miles

Further explanation

Velocity is a vector that has both magnitude and direction

Velocity is the ratio of distance per time

Can be formulated :

[tex]\tt v=\dfrac{d}{t}[/tex]

v , m/s

d , m

t, s

1. d = 40 miles

t = 2 hr

[tex]\tt v=\dfrac{40~miles}{2~hr}\\\\v=20~miles/hr[/tex]

2. maybe you meant the distance traveled

v = 15 miles/hr

t = 3 hr

[tex]\tt d=v\times t\\\\d=15\times 3\\\\d=45~miles[/tex]
