# The distanca traveled divided by the time interval during which the motion occurred is called what?

###### Wiki User

That would be speed, or if it's in a specific direction, velocity.

### Can you correctly describe speed?

The distance traveled in an ifinitesimally small time interval, divided by that time interval.

### Is the total distance traveled divided by constant speed eual constant speed?

No. The total distance traveled divided by constant speed is the time interval.

### What is average speed definition?

The average speed of an object in an interval of time is the distance traveled by the object divided by the duration of the interval.

### The distance traveled divided by the time interval during which the motion occured or how fast something traveled?

That is called average speed. If the direction is important (i.e., you need a vector), it is called velocity.Attn. supervisor -- Occurred is correct spelling [ in title ].

### The amount of distance traveled in a given amount of time measures what?

(change in distance) divided by (time interval) = the object's average speed during that time interval.

### Instantaneous speed is total distance traveled divided by total time of travel this is true and false?

False. Instantaneous speed is distance travelled divided by time, for a very short time interval. (Technically, you take the limit, when the time interval approaches zero.)

### What is the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled without identifying the direction traveled?

Speed describes the distance traveled by an object divided by the time in which the distance was traveled, if the direction is not specified.

### Velocity divided by the time interval equals?

Change in velocity divided by time is acceleration, but velocity divided by time has no particular significance.

### What is the average speed if you walk for 120 seconds at 1ms then run for 120 seconds at 6ms?

To find the average speed you must know the total distance traveled and the total elapsed. The distance traveled in each interval is simply the speed multiplied by the time (v x t). Thus, in the first interval you travel 120 x 1 = 120 meters, in the second interval 120 x 6 = 720 meters; therefore, the total distance traveled is 840 meters. The total time elapsed is 120 + 120 = 240 seconds. An average speed is simply the total distance traveled divided by the total time elapsed thus in this case it is 720 m / 240 s = 3 m/s.

### Is speed the distance that has been traveled?

No. The average speed would be the distance traveled divided by the elapsed time.

### What is the Distance traveled divided by the time needed to travel that distance?

Speed Average speed- the total distance traveled divided by the time it takes to travel that distance Velocity is also the distance or displacement divided by the time

### How do you get the speed of an object?

Distance traveled divided by the time it took.

### How do you calculate a objects acceleration?

Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time interval)

### What is an objects total distance traveled dived by the total time it traveled?

Assuming that by "objects" you mean object's, by "traveled" you mean travelled, and by "dived" you mean divided, the answer is average speed.

### How many integers between 1000 and 9999 are even?

1 - even numbers in 1...9999 interval 9999 divided by 2 is 4999 2 - even numbers in 1..999 interval 999 divided by 2 is 499 Doing (1) - (2) = 4999 - 499 = 4500 even numbers in that interval.
