<h2>Soccer player practices kicking the ball </h2>

The player has 15 meters per second ( m/s ) average velocity of the ball. In order to calculate, we know that the formula of calculating the velocity is velocity = displacement / time.

A player practices kicking the ball into the goal from halfway down the soccer field. Half displacement will be considered which is 45 meters and time interval is given which is 3 seconds. By putting values in the formula v = d / t ( 45 / 3 ) = 15, we get 15 m / s average velocity.

I think so. Half of 90 is 45 so 45 divided by 3 (3 seconds) if 15. 15 meters per second.
