Why do streets and highways have speed limits rather than velocity limits?

Physics

They actually DO have velocity limits. There are legal restrictions on both speed and direction.

-- Speeds are limited according to the black numbers on white signs that you see on sign-posts everywhere.

-- Directions are limited by the layout of the pavement and curbs on all the highways, avenues, roads, boulevards and streets, as well as the countless signs that say "One Way", "No Left Turn", "Keep Right", "Keep Left", etc. Violate one of these, and you get nailed as sure as if you had exceeded a posted speed limit.

A girl rides her bike at 2.52 m/s on the way to her friends how which is 628 m away.
Harrizon [31]

Answer: 249 seconds

Explanation:

Speed of bike = 2.52 m/s

Distance = 628 m

Time taken = ? ( let the unknown value be Z)

Recall that speed is the distance covered per unit time.

Hence, speed = Distance / Time taken

Time taken = Distance / speed

Z = 628m / 2.52 m/s

Z = 249.2 seconds (Round to nearest tenth i.e 249 seconds)

Thus, it takes 249 seconds for the girl to get to her friends house
