Question

How would you find the speed of a person who walked

Answer 1

Answer:

v = 1.25 m/s

Explanation:

We have,

Distance covered by a person is 10 meters

Time taken by him to cover that distance is 8 seconds.

If we want to find the speed of a person, we must know distance covered by it and taken. In this case, we know both distance and time. His speed is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{10\ m}{8\ s}\\\\v=1.25\ m/s$

So, the speed of the person is 1.25 m/s.
