Use the equation, speed = distance / time, substitute in the given information from the problem and solve it.
Speed=Distance(time) So you would plug in what you know and solve so if your speed is 5 and your time is ten you have traveled 10 units
Speed= Distance/Time
speed = distance/time
The basic definition of speed is: speed = distance / time Solve this equation for distance, or solve it for time, to get two additional versions of the equation.
Speed that is the same at any given time is uniform speed.
Speed is defined as distance covered per unit of time, so distance divided by speed equals time. For example, if you are travelling for 200 miles at a speed of 60 miles per hour, 200 miles/60 mph = three and a third hours.
Speed is equal to the distance traveled divided by the time taken. SPEED = (DIST/Time)
Average speed is an average value of speed over a given time. If your speed is constant (not changing), then your average speed will equal your speed at any given moment in time.
I'd imagine distance/total time=average speed
Acceleration. Deceleration is a decrease of speed during a given interval of time.
Dimensional analysis allows you to convert between non-alike units of measure. Set up your given measurements as a proportion, and solve for the location that is standing in for the missing value.
