Question

Sandra moves 14 m in 2 minutes. What is Sandra’s average velocity (in m/s)?

Answer 1

There are 120 seconds in 2 minutes.

14m/120s = 0.12m/s

Oddly, that is not a choice available...

Answer 2

Yes but I'm not getting any answer that is listed. What section are you in? Is the motion something I'm unaware of?

Givens

d = 14 m

t = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

Solution

d = r*t

14 m = r * 120 seconds

r = 14 / 120

r = 0.117 m/s

That m must mean something I'm not seeing.
