Question

if jack was traveling north 120 miles and it took him 3 hours to get there. what is the velocity that jack was traveling? is this a scalar or vector ​

Answer 1

Velocity of an object is given as

$velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}$

now we have

$displacement = 120 miles$

time = 3 hours

now from above formula

$v = \frac{120}{3}$

$v = 40 miles/hour$

so its velocity is 40 mph and its a vector quantity whose direction is towards NORTH

correct answer is B
