So for science we need to find out the speed of cars that we timed over 20m or 50m were going. Here are the times and distances. Thanks for your help. PS. It is in meters per Second




50m:5 sec
50m:9.18 sec
50m:5.73 sec
50m:6.87 sec
20m:3.25 sec
20m:4.02 sec
20m:2.75 sec
20m:3.81 sec
20m:3.93 sec

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

You should be able to do the math...

10m/s
5.54 m/s...
Got it...
Like its said take the distance divided by the time...

50 meters divided by 5 seconds gives us a speed of 10m/s...
Got it?
