Question
What is Mean Speed or Average Speed?
Answer
Mean Speed is also known as average Speed. Mean Speed or Average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken to cover that distance. It is a measure of how fast an object is moving on average over a given period of time.
The formula for average speed is:
Average speed = total distance / total time
For example, if a car travels 100 miles in 2 hours, the average speed of the car would be:
Average speed = 100 miles / 2 hours
Average speed = 50 miles per hour
So, the car traveled at an average speed of 50 miles per hour over the 2-hour period.
