Questions and Answers

What is the formula for velocity according to the given text?

  • v = t * d
  • v = d / t (correct)
  • v = t / d
  • v = t + d
  • If a runner's position changes from 15 m east to 40 m east in 3 seconds, what is the runner's average velocity?

  • 5 m/s east
  • 25 m/s east (correct)
  • 10 m/s east
  • 15 m/s east
  • What is the difference between speed and velocity?

  • Speed has direction while velocity does not.
  • Velocity is always positive while speed can be negative.
  • Speed is a scalar quantity while velocity is a vector quantity. (correct)
  • Speed is calculated as displacement divided by time, while velocity is distance divided by time.
