Average speed  =  (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance).

Runner's average speed = (length of 1 lap) / (her time to run 1 lap).

________________________________

Average velocity =

           (straight-line distance between start-point and end-point)
divided by
           (time to go from start-point to end-point).

The runner's start-point and end-point are the same place.
The distance between them (her 'displacement') is zero. 
Her average velocity = zero .

Why would the planets move in a straight path if there was no gravitational energy from the sun​
omeli [17]

Explanation:

The sun's gravitational force is very strong. If it were not, a planet would move in a straight line out into space. The sun's gravity pulls the planet toward the sun, which changes the straight line of direction into a curve. This keeps the planet moving in an orbit around the sun

A ball is thrown straight down with a speed of Va2.00 from a building 40.00 meters high. How much S time passes before the ball
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Considering vertical motion of ball:-

Initial velocity, u =  2 m/s

Acceleration , a = 9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = 40 m

We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

   s= ut + 0.5 at²

    40 = 2 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

   4.9t²  + 2t - 40 = 0

   t = 2.66 s   or t = -3.06 s

So, time is 2.66 s.

Option C is the correct answer.
