Question

What is the average speed of a dancer who moves 4 meters across the stage in 16 seconds?

Answer 1

Answer:

$v=0.25 \frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the average velocity is computed as the change in the distance divided by the elapsed time:

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

As 4 m were displaced in 16 seconds, the average speed turns out:

$v=\frac{4m}{16s} \\\\v=0.25 \frac{m}{s}$

Best regards.
