How would you find the average speed of an cyclist during an entire race?
Find the distance of the race. Find the cyclist's start time. Find the cyclist's finish time. Elapsed time = Finish time - Start time. Average speed = Distance/Elapsed time.
If a cyclist takes 4 hours to travel 72 miles what is the cyclist and average speed in miles per hour?
1/18
If a cyclist takes 4 hours to travel W miles what is the cyclist and average speed in miles per hour?
W/4 mph
How do you describe an object's motion?
An objects motion or speed is distance divided by time.
A cyclist travels at an average speed of 16 km how will he travel in 45 minutes?
16 km is not a speed (average or otherwise), it is a distance. It is therefore impossible to answer this question.
How would you find the average speed of a cyclist through an entire?
You measure the entire and divide that by the total.
Why speed is considered as incomplete quantity to describe motion?
Because it doesn't have direction - Velocity is usually used to describe motion in physics because it has both speed and direction.
What is speed of motion?
The average speed of motion is when speed is changing. Speed equals total distance divided by total travel time. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object's motion.
How do you find the average speed of a cyclist throughout an entire race?
total distance divided by total time
What are needed to completely describe velocity?
Speed and direction of motion.
How will you describe the motion of the object?
When it changes position or something to do with the speed.
