Answer:

Speed = 68.75m/s

Explanation:

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;

[tex]Speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

[tex]S = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]

Given the following data;

Distance = 550m

Time = 8secs

Substituting into the above equation;

[tex]S = \frac{550}{8}[/tex]

Speed, S = 68.75m/s
