Question

Archie completed the 0.33 meter course in 2 minutes. What was Archie's average rate of speed, in meters per second?

Answer 1

We are given

Archie completed the 0.33 meter course in 2 minutes

total distance is 0.33 meter

so, $d=0.33m$

total time is 2 minutes

Firstly, we will change it into seconds

so, $t=2*60$

$t=120$ seconds

now, we can find speed

$speed=\frac{d}{t}$

now, we can plug values

and we get

$speed=\frac{0.33}{120}$

$speed=0.00275$ meters per seconds

so, Archie's average rate of speed, in meters per second is 0.00275 meters per seconds............Answer

Answer 2

Answer: 0.00275 m/sec

Explanation:

2 x 60 = 120 seconds

0.33 ÷ 120 = 0.00275 m
