Question

Kiley went 5.7 km/h north and then went 5.8 km/h west. From start to finish, she went 8.1 km/h northwest to find Maya Rodriguez.

Answer 1

Answer:

• D. 5.7 km/h north and 5.8 km/h west are instantaneous velocities, while 8.1 km/h northwest is the average velocity.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given directions and position change.

This is about the velocity, the speed doesn't take into account the direction.

We also see the change in the velocity. The numbers give us instantaneous velocities and the displacement is the average velocity as the sum of vectors.

Considering the above explanation, correct choice is D.
