Question

A train is headed to California from Georgia. It has traveled 100,000 miles in 2 hours. What is the velocity of the train?

Answer 1

To calculate the velocity of the train, we can use the formula:

velocity = distance / time

In this case, the distance traveled by the train is 100,000 miles, and the time taken is 2 hours.

Plugging these values into the formula, we have:

velocity = 100,000 miles / 2 hours velocity = 50,000 miles/hour

Therefore, the velocity of the train is 50,000 miles/hour.
