<u>Answer</u>

2.7778 m/s


<u>Explanation</u>

Speed is rate of change of distance with time.

It is the distance covered in a unit time.  SI units of speed in m/s. Other units are Km/h, knots e.t.c

Average speed  = (total distance covered) / (total time taken)

                             = 7.5 Km / 45 Min

                             =  1/6 Km/Min

Or,

7.5Km = (7.5 × 1000) m = 7500 m

45 min = 45 × 60 2700 seconds

Average speed = 7500/2700

                           = 2.7778 m/s

To calculate for the average speed, we simply divide the total distance covered by the time it takes to travel that distance. In this case, we simply divide 7.5 km with 45 min. Therefore, the skier's average speed is 0.1667 km/min. Hope this helps.

Consider the following equations of motion.
Helen [10]

A) No, the equations presented above are the product of the derivation of position and velocity when the acceleration is constant.

The equations change to polynomial function of the second degree for the description of the acceleration when described as a function of time.

B) Yes, when the acceleration is zero it is concluded that the velocity is constant, therefore they could be used to describe the position as a function of the change in velocity.
