Flashcard 4 - Physics Flashcard Set for the HESI Exam

Back

2 meters per second


Explanation:

\[\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}\]

We know the object travels a distance of (10) meters in (5) seconds.
Substituting these values into the formula:

\[\text{Speed} = \frac{10 \text{ m}}{5 \text{ s}}\]

Now, divide (10) by (5):

\[\frac{10}{5} =2 \ \text{m/s}\]
