A car travels 60 km in 2 hours. What is its average speed?

Answer: 30 km/h.

  • A 20 km/h
  • B 30 km/h
  • C 60 km/h
  • D 120 km/h

Correct answer: B. 30 km/h

Explanation: Average speed = distance/time = 60/2 = 30 km/h.

tvuvTΔtΔvslope = aarea = displacement (s)

On a velocity-time graph for uniform acceleration, the slope of the line gives the acceleration and the shaded area under the line gives the displacement.

Concept context

Equations of motion, projectile motion, relative velocity. Foundation of all mechanics.
