Question

If a truck is travelling east on a straight road and travels 100 meters in 25s what is the truck's velocity?

Answer 1

Answer:

Velocity of the truck, v = 4 m/s                                                            

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance covered by the truck, d = 100 m

Time taken by the truck, t = 25 s

Let v is the velocity of the truck. We know that the velocity is a vector quantity. Mathematically, it is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

$v=\dfrac{100\ m}{25\ s}$

v = 4 m/s

So, the velocity of the truck is 4 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
