Question

Find the velocity in meters per second of a baseball thrown 38 meters from 1st to 3rd base in 1.9 seconds

Answer 1

The answer to this question is20 m/s

Answer 2

Answer:

$v=20\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The velocidty is defined as the change of position during an interval of given time. Therefore, it is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken to do it:

$v=\frac{x}{t}$

Replacing the given values:

$v=\frac{38m}{1.9s}\\v=20\frac{m}{s}$
