Answer

20 m/s east\text{20 m/s east}

Step-by-step solution

3 steps

here's how to solve that exercise:

  1. Identify the given values.

    The displacement of the car is Δx=100 m east\Delta x = 100 \text{ m east}.
    The time taken is Δt=5 s\Delta t = 5 \text{ s}.

  2. Recall the formula for velocity.

    Velocity is defined as displacement divided by time.

    v=ΔxΔtv = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

  3. Substitute the values and calculate the velocity.

    v=100 m east5 sv = \frac{100 \text{ m east}}{5 \text{ s}} v=20 m/s eastv = 20 \text{ m/s east}

    The velocity of the car is 20 m/s east\text{20 m/s east}.
