If you travel 30 miles somewhere and then come home again your distance is 60 miles.  Your displacement is 0 because it is the ending position minus the beginning position, which are the same place (home).  In other words, displacement is a vector and distance is a scalar.

viktelen [127]
1000 miles = 1610km = 1.61x10^6m
2 weeks = 14 days = 14x24x1440

V=d/t = 1.61x10^6/14x24x1440
= 3.33m/s

What is the average velocity of a car if it travels from position 25m to a position of -7m in 34 seconds?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

vp = 0.94 m/s

Explanation

Formula

Vp = position/ time

position: Initial position - Final position

Position = 25 m - (-7 m) = 25 m + 7 m = 32 m

Then

Vp = 32 m / 34 seconds

Vp = 0.94 m/s
