Read the scenario.
A lizard is at an initial position of 2 m and walks to a position of 10 m in 4 s.
What is the lizard’s average velocity?
3 m/s
2 m/s
2.5 m/s
-3 m/s
B?
d = V * t = 10-2 = 8,
V * 4 = 8,
V = 2 m/s.
yes
thank you
Correct :)
To calculate the average velocity of the lizard, we need to divide the displacement by the time interval.
The displacement is the change in position, which is equal to the final position minus the initial position. In this case, the final position is 10 m and the initial position is 2 m, so the displacement is 10 m - 2 m = 8 m.
The time interval is given as 4 s.
To find the average velocity, we divide the displacement by the time interval:
Average velocity = displacement / time interval
= 8 m / 4 s
= 2 m/s.
Therefore, the lizard's average velocity is 2 m/s.
The correct answer is option B.
