The speed of this car is equal to 1.6 km/min.

Given the following data:

  • Distance = 50 kilometers.
  • Time = 30 minutes.

To calculate the speed of this car:

Speed can be defined as the distance travelled by an object per unit time and it is usually measured in meter per seconds (m/s). Also, speed has magnitude but no direction and as such it is a scalar quantity.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

[tex]Speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]Speed = \frac{50}{30}[/tex]

Speed = 1.6 km/min.
