Answer: 1.2 m/s
Explanation:
Velocity [tex]V[/tex] is defined as the variation of position of an object or body in time. So, if we know the distance the seed traveled and the time, we can calculate its velocity:
[tex]V=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]d=180 cm \frac{1 m}{100 cm}=1.8 m[/tex] is the distance the maple seed traveled
[tex]t=1.5 s[/tex] is the time
Then:
[tex]V=\frac{1.8 m}{1.5 s}[/tex]
[tex]V=1.2 m/s[/tex] This is the seed's velocity
