The Problems: 1. Xavier starts at a position of 0 m and moves with an average speed of 0.50 m/s for 3.0 seconds. He normally moves faster than this but he'd just woken up. Determine his final position. 2. A hedgehog starts at a position of 0 m and moves with an average speed of 0.75 m/s for 4.0 s. Determine the final position of the hedgehog. 3. A tortoise starts at a position of 1.0 m and moves with an average speed of 1.25 m/s for 3.0 s, what is the final position of the tortoise? Cintia, in a 100 m race, has an average speed of 1.25 m/s. What was her race time? 5. Angel runs a marathon with an average speed of 5 miles/hour. How long did it take to finish?

(1). His final position is 1.5 m.

(2). The final position of the hedgehog is 3 m.

(3). The final position of the tortoise

(4). Her race time is 80 sec.

(5). It take to finish in 5 hr.

Explanation:

(1). Given that,

Initial position = 0 m

Average speed = 0.50 m/s

Time = 3.0 s

We need to calculate the final position

Using formula of average speed

Where, = final position

= Initial position

t = total time

Put the value into the formula

(2). Given that,

Initial position = 0 m

Average speed = 0.75 m/s

Time = 4.0 s

We need to calculate the final position

Using formula of average speed

Put the value into the formula

(3). Given that,

Average speed = 1.25 m/s

Time = 3.0 sec

Initial position = 1.0 m

We need to calculate the final position

Using formula of average speed

Put the value into the formula

(4). Given that,

Average speed = 1.25 m/s

Distance = 100 m

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

Put the value into the formula

(5). Given that,

Average speed = 5 miles/hr

Suppose, distance = 25 miles

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

Put the value into the formula

Hence, (1). His final position is 1.5 m.

(2). The final position of the hedgehog is 3 m.

(3). The final position of the tortoise

(4). Her race time is 80 sec.

(5). It take to finish in 5 hr.

because if the tool that you are using is not balanced it there would be false mass.
