Calculating Average Speed, Distance and Time
In this physics worksheet, students solve 6 problems where they calculate average speeds of moving objects, distance objects travel and time it takes for objects to get to their destination.
Curated OER
Need For Speed
Young scholars calculate the distance a car travel using CEEBoT. In this algebra instructional activity, students apply the distance formula to real life scenarios. They use a measuring tape and a formula to measure the distance the...
Curated OER
Speeding By The Numbers
Young scholars determine speed by running or walking a given distance and dividing the distance by the time it took them to do so. They record their average speed and compare it with the speeds of other moving objects.
