A hiker moves across a mountain meadow that is 3 km wide in 40 minutes. What was her average velocity

1.25m/s

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the change of displacement with respect to time. Mathematically, velocity = displacement/time

Given displacement = 3km and time = 40minutes

Converting km to meters and minuetes to seconds;

Since 1 km = 1000m

3 km = (3*1000)m

3 km = 3000m

Also 1minute = 60seconds

40 minutes = 60*40 = 2400seconds

velocity = displacement/time

Velocity (in m/s) = 3000/2400

Velocity (in m/s) = 30/24

Velocity (in m/s) = 5/4

Velocity (in m/s) = 1.25m/s

Hence, the average velocity of he hiker is 1.25m/s
