An object moves a distance of 10 meters in 5 seconds. What is the average speed of the object?
a
0.5 m/s
b
40 m/s
c
50 m/s
d
2.0 m/s
The average speed of an object is calculated by dividing the total distance traveled by the amount of time taken. In this case, the object moves a distance of 10 meters in 5 seconds. Therefore, the average speed is 10 meters / 5 seconds, which equals 2 meters per second.
Hence, the correct answer is d) 2.0 m/s.
