Question

Calculate the speed of Segment C. (SCIENCE QUESTION)



1.7 m/s


.4 m/s*****


.6 m/s


2.3 m/s

Answer 1

Speed = (change in distance) / (time for the change)

Distance from top to bottom of Segment C = (6 - 0) = 6 m

Time from beginning to end of Segment C = (14 - 4) = 10 s

Speed = (6 m) / (10 s)

Speed = 6 m/s
