What is speed and velocity of a car that traveled a total of km north in 1.5?

The speed of the car is the rate at which it covers distance, measured in kilometers per hour. The velocity of the car is the rate at which it changes position, including direction, measured in kilometers per hour in a specific direction. Without the value of distance traveled or the specific direction (north) covered, the speed and velocity of the car cannot be determined.


What is velocity of a car that travels 120 km in 2h?

Just divide the distance by the time. To know the velocity, you would also need to know in what direction the car travels.


How can you calculate the rockets average velocity?

You calculate a rockets average velocity the same way you calculate the average velocity of anything else, a car, a running dog, or a stick floating on a stream. Velocity equals distance divided by time. It does not matter if your rocket traveled five thousand kilometers in one hour or if your car traveled 30 miles in one hour even if it stopped for gas along the way, you use the same formula.


What is the unit of measurement for velocity?

v=^x/^tVelocity is measured by distance traveled divided by time taken to travel.Or more simply explained:Velocity = Displacement ÷ TimeSo, say your car is driving on a road where as you pass by a road sign which says 60 mph. That is your current velocity.Your car's velocity = 60m÷h = 60mph to work back you could say that you have traveled 60 miles in one hour.Your car's velocity = 60 miles ÷ 1 hour


How do you find a cars speed and velocity?

Speed and velocity can be found by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken to travel that distance. Speed is scalar and only considers the magnitude of motion, while velocity is a vector quantity that includes both the magnitude and direction of motion. To calculate direction (velocity), you must also consider the car's displacement.

What will be the distance traveled by a car after 90 minutes?

It depends upon the speed or velocity of the car for e.g. if speed is 100km/min then Distance = speed X time i.e. D= 100X90= 9000km


What is the velocity of a car that travelled 340km south in 4.5 hours?

Simply divide the distance traveled by the time.


What is an object that has traveled a certain distance but has no velocity?

A car is traveling at a constant velocity.After two hours the car has traveled 90 miles. After five hours the car has traveled 225 miles.How far will the car have traveled after seven hours?

DISTANCE + VELOCITY x TIME So if you travel 90 miles in two hours, 90 = velocity x 2 velocity = 45 miles per hour After 7 hours DISTANCE = 45 x 7 = 315 miles


What is velocity of a car that travels 120 km in 2h?

Just divide the distance by the time. To know the velocity, you would also need to know in what direction the car travels.


How do you find the velocity of a car?

1). Read the speedometer in the dash. 2). Look out the window and note the direction in which you're headed. Those two pieces of information ... the car's speed and direction ... make up its velocity.

What is the distance traveled by an object divided by the time it takes to travel that distance called?

The distance traveled by an object divided by the time it takes to travel that distance is called the average speed, r, if you are also considering its direction, its average velocity. Velocity = distance in one direction/time Speed = distance/time For example: A car that travels 60 miles in a time of 2 hours has a speed of 30 miles per hour.


What is correctness of a measurement?

Velocity is measured by distance traveled divided by the time taken to travel. Unlike speed Velocity contains vectors, which means you can have a negative velocity. For example if a car traveled to the right 6 meters in 3 seconds velocity would be 2 meters per second or 2 m/s An example showing the vector (Direction) would be a car traveled 6 meters to the left in 3 seconds. -6/3= -2 m/s


What is the differnce between speed an velocity?

Consider the two statements: (1) The car left town and traveled 50 km. (2) The car left town and traveled 50 km NORTH. In the first statement we are merely talking about the distance traveled We do not know which way the car went. This is speed. SPEED is only a magnitude. In the second, we are giving more info by adding the DIRECTION in which the car traveled. This is VELOCITY. VELOCITY gives speed together with DIRECTION. You can see that VELOCITY is more informative than SPEED. In everyday life, people in the streets use the two terms interchangeably, but in science and engineering the distinction is important.
