Speed & VelocitySolve the following problems relating to speed and velocity. Be sure to show ALL your work.
Formulas: Speed = distance / time Velocity = displacement / time plus a given direction
1. A racehorse that wins the 3200 meter Cup in a time of 200 seconds. What is the racehorse's average speed?
2. The speed of sound in air is roughly 1,484 m/s. How far, in meters, would a sound wave travel in 3 seconds?
3. A dolphin keeps up with a boat for a distance of 51 miles for 3 hours. What is the dolphin’s average speed?
