* Velocity is a vector: Velocity has both magnitude (speed) and direction. You need to know how the object's position changes and in what direction.
* Average velocity: Average velocity is calculated by the change in position (displacement) divided by the time interval.
To find the average velocity, you need:
1. Initial Position: Where the object starts.
2. Final Position: Where the object ends.
3. Time Interval: The 6.0 seconds you've already given.
Example:
Let's say an object starts at position 0 meters and moves to position 12 meters in 6 seconds.
* Displacement: 12 meters - 0 meters = 12 meters
* Time Interval: 6.0 seconds
* Average Velocity: (12 meters) / (6.0 seconds) = 2 meters/second
Without knowing the initial and final positions, we can't calculate the average velocity.
