A particle is accelerated uniformly from rest to a speed of 50m/s in 5 seconds. The average speed of the particle during this 5sec time interval is....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[avg speed =\Delta d \div t\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is delta(d) displacement or distance?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is average displacement is with delta displacement average speed is with delta distance, meaning you add the distance to get a total

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be 50 + 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, I don't quite understand, but the logical answer seems to be 10m/s.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes correct
