What Is The Relationship Between Speed-Time And Distance-Time?


Recommended Posts

i dont know if what my teacher wanted me to research on was graphs or the simple concept because if it was graphs i know all about the relationship. then it must be something more substantial as it is our high school maths project! :/

Velocity is change in position divided by change in time.

 

Speed is the magnitude of velocity - that is, its amount, ignoring direction.

 

For example, if something changes position by 100 meters while a clock changes time by 20 seconds, its speed is 100/20 = 5 meters per second, which is usually written 5 m/s.
