Question

18
if a bicycle travels 36 meters in 6
seconds, what is its average speed?
a. 36 m/s
b. 12 m/s
c. 6 m/s

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for average speed

The formula for average speed \(v\) is \(v=\frac{d}{t}\), where \(d\) is the distance and \(t\) is the time.

Step2: Substitute the given values into the formula

Given \(d = 36\) meters and \(t=6\) seconds. Then \(v=\frac{36}{6}\).

Step3: Calculate the value

\(\frac{36}{6}=6\)

Answer:

C. \(6\space m/s\)
