A toy car is turned on for 8 seconds and then turned off. During that time the toy car travels 2.7 meters. Determine the average speed of the toy car in units of meters per second.
average speed = distance/time
21.6 miles per second
2.96 miles per second
0.34 meters per second
A toy car is turned on and travels 120 inches before being turned off. The time between it being turned and off was 15 seconds. Determine the average speed of the toy car in units of feet per second. Remember to convert inches to feet first.
8 feet per second
0.67 feet per second
0.125 feet per second
