Here's the formula:
Speed = Distance / Time
Example:
If you travel 100 miles in 2 hours, your speed would be:
Speed = 100 miles / 2 hours = 50 miles per hour
Units of Measurement:
* Distance: Can be measured in miles, kilometers, meters, etc.
* Time: Can be measured in hours, minutes, seconds, etc.
* Speed: Will be in units like miles per hour (mph), kilometers per hour (km/h), meters per second (m/s), etc.
Important Note:
* Speed is a scalar quantity, meaning it only has magnitude (amount). It does not have direction.
* Velocity is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction.
Let me know if you'd like to try calculating speed with some specific examples!
