What is the velocity of someone going north on main street for 1800 m then south on main street for 2200 m and the total time is 400 seconds?

The person travels a total of 4000 m in 400 seconds, so their average speed is 10m/s. However velocity is a vector quantity, and is defined as displacement/time. The total displacement is only 400 m, so the average velocity is just 1m/s.

What is the velocity of an object that moves at a distance of 200 meters in 10 seconds going right?
20 meters per second

When you meet someone on the street that you know walk over to them with a smile and say, 'Hi, how are things going with you?'
How fast are you going if you go one eighth mile in thirteen seconds?
60 seconds = 1 minute : 60 minutes = 1 hour therefore 3600 seconds = 1 hour. Velocity = Distance ÷ Time Velocity = 1/8 ÷ 13 = 1/104 mps = (1 x 3600) ÷ 104 = 34.62 mph (2dp)
How long does it take to travel 12 miles by car going 35 mph?
Velocity = Distance ÷ Time, therefore Time = Distance ÷ Velocity. Time = 12 ÷ 35 = 0.343 hours or 20mins 34 seconds approximately.
How the velocity of an escalator that is going up different from the velocity of one that is going down at the same speed?
Speed is a scalar, velocity is a vector. Two objects moving at the same speed but in opposite directions will have opposite velocities. If the velocity of the elevator going up is v, the velocity of the elevator going down will be -v.
If your going 100 mph how long does it take to drive 877 miles?
Velocity = Distance ÷ Time, therefore : Time = Distance ÷ Velocity. Time for journey = 877 ÷ 100 = 8.77 hours = 8 hours 46 minutes 12 seconds.

How long would it take to drive 59 miles going 85 miles per hour?
Velocity (Speed) = Distance ÷ Time. : Time = Distance ÷ Velocity Time = 59 ÷ 85 = 0.6941 hours = 41 minutes 39 seconds (approx)
If you are going 50miles hours for 30 seconds what is the acceletation?
Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity (speed) Thus if your speed is constant (50 miles per hour) your acceleration is zero
Is the velocity constant if a car is going around a curve?
NO,velocity changes.
What is the formula for accerleration?
Final velocity minus starting velocity, divided by time it took. Ex. Speeding up you car from 40mph to 60 mph when going on to freeway. It took 2 seconds. 60mph - 20mph= 40mph/2sec =20mph 20mph is your acceleration.
